Ok, so I have to take acidophilus and eat yogurt (but I don't know how to eat yogurt when I'm not supposed to have sugar? doesn't it all have sugar?) Anyway, am I gonna get yeast infections? Do any of you girls? If so, does your LLMD give you the prescription pill that helps with the symptoms? Or do you just stock your shelves with monistat?

Thanks:)

I haven't gotten it: take probiotics, eat unsweetened yogurt, and have been taking abx for three solid months. I feel a little bit of something when I switch abx but after a week or so I am fine.

I took hard core abx for 2 years and never had an issue. Take your probiotics (good ones) FAITHFULLY!

COOL:) So, regular natural yogurt that has milk sugar in it is ok? Just not ones with added sugar?

I think so: when they add sugar they add a lot of sugar. I second the probiotic advice: I take it every morning first thing & then twice a day after that.

Kefir is actually more beneficial than yogurt. It tastes a little stronger than yogurt but is good. It comes in plain with no sugar added. I use it on quinoa for a breakfast cereal. Plus as posted, take the probiotics.

If They say avoid dairy, can you still have yogurt?

Thanks:) I will look into the Kefir.
My doctor gave me no advice whatsoever on diet. Didn't mention any restrictions at all, so I'm not real happy about that either! I don't know if I am supposed to have dairy or not!
