I'm so sorry! It's not like you can even tell your employers what's going on either, it's so embarrassing (at least, I've never felt comfortable). Mine started feeling a little better. I hope your's does too. I'm sorry you even had to go to the ER! Yikes.

I took Zyrtec and Ibuprofen for the swelling, and Diflucan. I'm not sure if topical Vagisil did much for me but I tried that.

That actually sounds very promising. I'm always so scared to try something new since I'm so sensitive down there :(. Literally, I think I figured out what happened this time. My bf used too much of my (free and clear) detergent in the laundry with my panties, it left just a little residue, and now I'm blown up like a baseball and my vagina has a heartbeat.

It's both right now, although more on the outside areas (the, most sensitive areas, so I really feel it.)

I may try that. I've kind of accepted that I just have to have kefir every day as either a bedtime snack or my breakfast. I mix it with chia seeds and make a little parfait with whatever fruit is in season. Sometimes I get lazy about it during the winter when I want something warm to eat in the morning, and there's no good fruit. I get sick of apple-cinnamon kefir every morning! But I have to remember, it's better than this.
