New here but wanted to reply to this. I'm the queen of YIs (what an honor!) and I can relate to your agony. Glad to see it was nothing worse than an irritable infection, though. I am also lactose intolerant (pretty severely) but have no problem digesting yogurt comfortably. It's one of the only dairy foods I can eat with no, um, aftermath to deal with.
I would recommend the acidophilus supplement - you can purchase a dairy-free version - as well as a bottle of AZO Yeast pills, which I truly believe are little wonder pills. They're just herbal supplements but somehow they work to prevent YIs. I don't know what I'd do without 'em.
