Thanks...I've been trying to pour in the water...but I hadn't thought about yogurt. I usually always eat it when I'm taking meds...it's just been a while. I'll be going to get some this evening! The thought of a yeast infection after this doesn't really thrill me.
And not trying to hijack here, but he also told me to get some over the counter AZO for relief...which I did and it made me feel like I was high...I didn't take any more of it...I thought it might be the macrobid at first, but I called the doc and he said he didn't think that was likely. At any rate I haven't felt that way since I quit taking it. That was really, really strange.
