vaginapagina | I angered my vagina: a tale of three infections (Reply)

So I went to the ER tonight, after getting NO help from my PCP. After a brutal, horrid, pelvic exam and a urine test they told me I had a bacterial, yeast, AND bladder/kidney infection. Somehow I really pissed off my vagina! This has been going on, getting worse, for two weeks. My PCP gave me diflucan, no help. Then gave me flagyl, no help. So I went to the ER. I was so nauseaus I was getting dizzy and falling. Feverish. All that good stuff. And like I said, my PCP...well...sucks.

So I guess my question here is: How in the heck did I manage to get THREE infections all at once? And why are they so resistant to the medicine?

I'm sexually active, but we are both sti-neg. I bathe regularly, with no soap or chemicals near my vag. I just don't get it.

Also, anything anyone can recommend to help me get through this? Cranberry juice makes me vomit. :\ Anything I can pick up at the store OTC? I was sent home with TONS of medicine at the ER, but I'm looking for something to help soothe the soreness and itch while the medicine gets in there and does it's business. I did read the VP website, but I just want to make sure I'm not going to screw up my medicine by using something OTC..

TIA!
