Glad this guild re-opened when it did, because now I've got a problem.

I'm 98% sure this is a yeast infection I'm dealing with. Normal remedies (yogurt, warm washcloth, etc.) that normally stave away my crotch problems aren't working, and I have the classic symptoms of a yeast infection. What gets me, however, is I've also been having some abdominal pain along with it. Does abdominal pain ever enter the equation as a symptom, or is this just a fluke? I've been reading up on the subject and can't find anything about it.

Regardless, I'm heading out for some medicine after I wait this out a bit. There's still certain things I'm keeping an eye on.

Hmm. I am not sure.

I would suggest heading to the ob-gyn. She should be able to give you some definite answers. If you don't have health insurance, try Planned Parenthood or Family Planning.

Don't get over the counter yeast infection medicine unless you have been diagnosed with a yeast infection before by an ob-gyn. So many people are tempted to grab the otc meds, but it says right on the box that you shouldn't take it unless you were diagnosed by a doctor. That's because many things have similar symptoms. If you try to treat something that you don't even have, it can actually make things worse!

Good luck!
