Good to hear your success.

As far as the yeast goes, from my own limited understanding, they never
really go away - normally, they play some part in the ecology of the body.
When the body's balance goes off, they proliferate and become a problem. My
symptoms go away in about two days, so I infer that things are going back
into equilibrium. Often they disappear overnight.
