Yeesh, I meant to post something last week. Got distracted though.
I worship at the altar of garlic. It can cure anything, I swear! Sunday I woke up with a mild UTI, suffered through the day (an otherwise quite enjoyable day out at the park with Deniz & Su and family for a joint birthday celebration) and when I got home Connie suggested garlic. So I took about 4-5 cloves (don't recall now) and pressed them, swallowed with water, and followed that up with some very acidic lemonade I had made for myself. The lemonade turned out to be quite the lifesaver, as the garlic instantly started to make my stomach turn and the lemonade settled it down lickety-split. And...half an hour later I felt fine. I should have taken a little more garlic this morning, but I am doing ok.
