>Are you Type I or Type II diabetic?
Type I,my doc says I was born with it, but was fit and ate healthy etc and it did'nt show until I ended up fat after back injury. Comfort eating, sorta felt sorry fo myself. My Doctor is trying to get it under control using tablets and I'm hoping insulin is the last resort. (It is in my family,bro & sis some cousins have it and they were fit and healthy)

>How did you try the yogurt? For what reason, and how did you learn about its use?
I thought I new about such things, or should I say had a fair idea, bolstered by my Microbiology,(food) degree, boy was I WRONG. My wife suggested yogurt,I have dunked it, sat with it in the tub, (that got too weird) applied it under the fore skin, but washed it off after an hour or so. Never the way you described

>As Paul, who is in real life practice, but not an armchair online doctor, has said, you need to get the thrush under control before concerning yourself with the constriction. Once that happens, simple stretching ill relieve it.
>What kind of discharge are you getting, consistency, color, smell?

White/yellow, sometimes looks like puss from spots, thick and powdery (if that makes sense)to greenish watery, some times there is an odour, thats why I dip cotton buds in water and swab it out.

I used to be able to pull my foreskin right back, yellow discharge sort of oozed out around the base of the gland, I could the pull the skin back more and
wash and apply canesten, this caused no discomfort. Problems started when I could not pull the fore skin back and my blood sugars went too high, my doc just kept giving me more cream.

Thanks for your help and time it is appreciated.
