Hello:

Thank you for your time. I am not sure what kind of blood tests were done. I know they also did a urine sample. I never received a printout of the lab work done, the doctor just called and told me I had a yeast infection. I was prescribed one Diflucan pill. Everytime I go to a doctor they do a blood test and/or urine sample and tell me I have a yeast infection. I am always given Diflucan which makes the symptoms appear. What concerns me the most is that I was never prone to yeast infections until after my hysterectomy/colporrhaphy and I never even know I have an ifection until I take the pill. I am beginning to wonder if perhaps I may have a staff infection? I really do not know what type of doctor I should see to get this problem resolved once and for all. Thank you for your help. Take Care - DG
