For Bacterial Vaginosis "Well, today is Wednesday. I just took 4 pills, my 1st day. So, I think I got BV because of damp swimsuits while vacationing in Cancun. We did snorkeling, swimming at the pool, and cave swimming 4 days in a row. I practically lived in swimsuits. Anyway, on top of this, I also ate something, and I've had vomiting, stomach cramps, and diarrhea. This pill takes care of it all together. As I'm typing this, I can taste the metallic taste, but it's not too bad. I just wouldn't handle more puking or diarrhea. I'll let y'all know in 3 days."

For Bacterial Vaginosis "This medicine makes me feel like garbage. I am prescribed 8 pills for 2 days. I took one last night and felt like crap for hours. Took another one this morning and was bad for the first hour, then mild. Now time to take another, and I don't want to. This is my second round, and they made me feel worse last time. By day 3, I had to quit. That would be why I'm on it again. I'm trying to do it right this time because I do not want to have to suffer through the medicine a 3rd time! Makes me feel dehydrated. Headachy, metallic taste, nauseated, rapid heartbeat, and gassy. But it does clear up infection."

For Bacterial Vaginosis "I had my appointment on Monday at 4 p.m. Was diagnosed with BV and was prescribed 500 mg pills to take twice a day for 5 days. I took one that evening. On Tuesday evening (after 2 pills) I had a headache and metallic taste. I took the 3rd pill that night. This morning I woke up with heartburn and still a headache. Now I'm on pill 4 and my vagina is itchy and I'm sleepy. I'm going to take a Zyrtec."

For Bacterial Vaginosis "The tinidazole is working very well. I can already see results, quite pricey, and a metal taste in my mouth, but other than that nothing else."
