With the ambdominal pain it could also be coming from an UTI! The best thing to always do is to start with the most reasonable answer, then check that off your list, IF it doesn't take care of it, THEN you need to go to an STD/STI clinic to see if you have Gonorhea! So hold off and see! NOW if the pain becomes worse I want you to seek IMMEDIATE help! As this COULD be the sign of something going on that needs to be treated ASAP!

Well that treatment and the cream have already really started to help with the itching down there. And my mom said that the burning was a sign that the medicine was working (I hate when people say things like that. That's like doctors saying that something has to get worse before it gets better......yeah right....)

But anyways, I've not eaten any sugar things really, except in my cereal this morning, but I have low blood sugar so if I don't have at least a little sugar through the day then I tend to get pretty cranky because I end up shaking a lot :-( that I did have checked by a doctor, it's normal and I've had it forever. Also been eating lots of green foods, drinking cranberry juice (because it's apparently good for everything) and the yogurt.... haven't put the yogurt down there but I'm kinda a neat freak sorta person and the idea of doing that weirds me out a little.

I have been having some cramps but that's normal for me around my period. I've always had cramps then that vary from mild to pretty damn annoying. Though the abdominal pains are about the same as they have been the past couple of days. Still I did make an appointment for Saturday with the free clinic, that's the only day that these places are open and you have to schedule ahead. %-) Hopefully if it's a UTI or bladder infection then they will be able to tell me while I'm there and give me something to help out.

IF your period comes on I think they can't do a STI test! Ask about that!

It's already here, :-( unfortunately.... which really makes this 7 day thing a bigger not fun mess. So I donno what they will be able to do or not.

So the box actually states that you can use the Monistat through your period?!!! o.O I think you should wait till your period ends - I can't imagine how the monistat suppository can do it's job while there is a steady flow in your vagina!! Also I bet that is why you were having pains - from PMS!

it's not from the PMS, I have always gotten cramps either before or during my period ever since I started having a period. I know what that pain feel likes. Those are more horrible pains that kinda stab at my stomach.

This current thing, it's kinda a discomfort in my lower abdominal area and into my hips a bit. Never felt these before. But hopefully the doctor will be able to sort that out now that I definately have an appointment.

And yeah, it says that it's safe to use through your period and that it should work. I've used the monistat for 2 days now, tonight is the 3rd night and so far the itching has pretty much stopped, the only thing that's still bugging me is the abdominal thing. My mom said that it could be a bladder infection, UTI or even cyst? on the uterus area.... apparently it's not that uncommon in my family, my sister had that problem and well my mom had to have everything down there removed because of her problems.

I really hope it doesn't come to that, I might not like kids now, but one day I'd rather like to be able to have them. >.< The doctor I'm going to on sat. can't do a lot, but they can test for the UTI and bladder thing.

I found another clinic that can do blood work/the gynecologist/ and everything with them, but I couldn't get an appointment until next wednesday.... so I kept the one that's coming up so I could at least check for those 2 things before I go over to the better doctors.

ok, I went to the one doctor on Saturday and he said he wouldn't do anything for me until I saw a gynecologist...... nothing at all... but I guess that's what you get for going to a free clinic right? Well I finally found a free clinic with a gynecologist but their only there on Saturdays and of course I couldn't get an appointment until this coming Saturday now >.<


Though what is really weird.... I did the 7 day thing, just finished it up on Sunday night and you know what after that 1st day of using it. I had no itching at all, it left and things felt better -other then the lower abdominal discomfort and the hips being sore or whatever they are. But now there's a mild itching starting up and that white powder-like discharge is appearing around the outer edges of the vaginal area. On the outside of the opening area you know. I don't get it... I mean the monistat totally helped for those 7 -9 days since it just started now mildly so I was sure it had to be a yeast infection. But that should of cleared it up right? I mean it can't honestly be that bad that it would come back already. I mean should I go ahead and take that pill I got (the one that you take for a yeast infection over the creams and injection cream stuff) or just itch and wait for Saturday to come around so the gynecologist can have a look and see whats wrong with me?
