Glad you got the Diflucan. I didn't know yeast infections could cause blood in urine. Diflucan works fast for me. I've only ever been given 2 pills of it.

I’m somewhat worried about this blood in my urine. You think I should address it with my primary. She’ll send me to a urologist. That thought scares me. Think they have to look up there!

I had a vaginal yeast infection recently. My doctor told me it can cause a very small amount of bleeding if the yeast infection is bad. But it shouldn’t be much blood. She said the blood appears to be in the urine when you pee in the cup but it’s actually coming from the vagina. Not sure if that’s what you have going on or not

Haley,
Was not noticed by me. Just when Peed for the sample. First she mentioned it. I asked what about the blood? She said it’s from the infection.

I always have blood in my urine and the drs don’t seem worried about it. Trace amounts of blood are considered acceptable apparently. I’m starting to worry about it tho because I feel it’s coming from inflammation in my bladder and we all know how harmful long term inflammation can be.

I had a cystoscope done many years ago (when they first discovered the blood in my urine) and I don’t recall it hurting.

I dont know. I probably wouldn't worry about it if the doctor wasn't worried. You could ask your primary though if you want some reassurance.

It was more then trace. I told her that I always have trace blood. I’m going to leave it be for now. I guess if she wasn’t worried then maybe I shouldn’t be.

Keith, she gave me 3 150 mg take 1 every other day.
For 5 days.
Double dose would have been good. 89 cents for the script. They never write with refills. I guess they want your visit.

I picked up a script for Diflucan for my dog yesterday. It was $23. She got a 21 day supply with 4 refills from the vet. The yeast infection in her ear is already clearing up.

Faithmac, just checking on you, any progress on getting rid of the yeast infection?

Give us an update when you get a chance.

Hi straydog, all is well , yeast infection gone. Just went back on Emgality for headaches. Seems to be working. The best news Remicade is working. Not 100% but 85-90% . So all is good thanks! 🤞

Yayyyyyy!!!!!

Btw…. If the emgality causes constipation, this is my methodology: Metamucil nightly. For the week or so after the injection, use stool softeners and miralax as needed.

I’ve been on Aimovig about 3 yrs now and find it usually no longer makes me constipated.

Constipation can also be a symptom of regressing inflammation. I second the Metamucil with meals (I use capsules) and increase fruits and veggies.

I'm happy for you that the infection has cleared and the Remicade is working for you.

Emgality seems to be working. No constipation. No real headaches. I’ll keep in mind what to take in case of constipation.
Lots of muscle and joint pain. Not sure if it’s the Remicade or from the accident. Could really use some anti inflammatory meds. With UC not sure what would be ok to take
