Hi Alex:
I'm so glad to hear xylitol is helping you. As it seemed to be virtually unheard of in helping this condition, I have tried hard to spread the word, as it helped me so much. It's not easy seeing so many people suffering when I know how it feels. I'm trying to avoid the sugar, too - it's everywhere, isn't it?
The vaginal suppositories I used were Yeast-Gard, which helped me very much in keeping from getting infected. If you're in the U.S., they can be bought at Sav-On. Walgreen's had them but I don't know if they do any more. I used the acidophilus supplements orally, 2 to 3 million about 3 times a day until I was stabilized. I still take one a day.
Please let me know if you have any other questions, and I'll be glad to help where I can. You are not alone, sweetie. Jhan's a doll, isn't she?
