Male folk - you mayor not want to read this quivk update!!!
There's no point beating about the bush, pussy footing around, I've got an infection 'down below' as my Nan used to say.
Last time, when I had this bacterial form of thrush, I found out instead of needing a 5 day course of a particular antibiotic that makes me feel sick and ill and it clashes with alcohol, there was an internal cream you could use and it worked really well. I had got it then by phoning the out of hours doctors as it was a saturday, they faxed a precription to the local chemist and I just collected it, used it and problem solved.
This time, I went to see my male doctor who didn't want to examine me but believed what I said and was going to prescribe the antibiotic tablets so I told him about this cream and he looked through his computerised list and prescribed a cream. The chemist didn't stock it so had to wait till yesterday to pick it up. Last night, I got it out of the bag with other things in and thought - hmm, this doesn't look right. Read the label and leaflet and found it said 'external use only' and 'for use in acne'. Yeeooooooow - can you imagine if I'd tried to use it without reading it first. My mind boggles. so it's back to the GP now to get the right stuff.
Since coming back from our holiday last week, I've been into the GP and chemist everyday as they keep getting it wrong!!! Oh well, hopefully this time, thet'll get it right and I won't feel as if my undercarriage is on fire!!!!!
