sorry to here you are having such a difficult time. i have a few suggesstions: first, there is a book called, The Yeast connection-- read this. Secondly, your diet is very important, as you already know. Do not eat sugarly foods, anything with yeast in it, and avaiod alcohol. Birth control pills tend to go hand in hand with reacurring infections. things that tend to make yeast infections worse are those things. next- lose the undies all together for a while. I know this sounds wild and drafty, it will help. treat your symptoms at the very first felling that there is something wrong. I know this is a pain but waiting givess the little yeast buds a head start. You do know your own body-- listen to it. Disease is telling you something. learn to do some stress releasing yoga, or meditation, and walking is good excersise. Stress changes our bodies ability to heal itself and even to keep itself healthy. Your sexual partner should also be checked and perhaps treated. it is just like playing the childs game of chase and you are 'it" again. know what I mean. next, have yourself checked for diabetes whether it runs in your family or not. Good luck and good health to you. carole
