Could it be a side effect of the Nystatin & Triamcinolone Acetonide cream I was using for the yeast infection?  Originally I was given just Nystatin which burned like crazy so I was switched to the N & T Acetonide.
I haven't been released by doc for sex or bath yet as she had to do some bladder and intestinal adhesion repairs and used the type of stitches that take 3 months to dissolve. Would it still be ok to use the douche?
Just trying to get some relief until appt. next week. thanks
