Er, well, first off, hi. I forget if this is my first comment because in my head I formulate all these replies to the Tesla cartoons and and then...I obviously don't post them. I do enjoy your LJ, though.
My aunt has Sjogren's syndrome, it's a thing where the eyes and mouth (among other parts) dry out, and it was discovered because she had a case of thrush that was a beast to clear up. In her case it was lack of saliva allowing the candida* to take over. I just wanted to let you know it's not ALWAYS cooties-related. Her doctor gave her the same jive at first.
Ditto what cheshire23 said, too, it seems the flavored yogurt doesn't work as well as plain.
(*My family became candida experts. WHY. Why couldn't it be something like growing money out the ears?)
