I am not loving the idea of having to go to a doctor, and I'm struggling with a number of health problems lately, I've had 4 or 5 different problems in about 2 and a half/three weeks. I am thinking my stress has levelled up to something extreme, or I'm just having some really bad luck lately.

I've had intestinal problems, including a lot of intestinal bleeding, pain, diarrhoea, etc. which lasted about 2 weeks and has gone away. I've had intestinal problems and bleeding on and off for about 10-15 years so it doesn't terrify me, it is just that it seemed to be triggered by nothing (when before I went on birth control to clear my skin the intestinal bleeding had a real pattern with the time of the month). Then I got a cold. Then I got a UTI. And I've also got a rash around the lady region that seems to be getting worth and is so itchy I was pretending I had something to do out the back at work just so I could spend 5 minutes scratching.
Now it's 100% not an STD. Initially I thought it may be a bit of a shaving rash because I may have done a little bit of gardening (which I don't usually do but decided to a few weeks ago). Now I'm sure this isn't a shaving rash. It is on my inner thigh crotch area on both sides, and now seems to be heading inwards. There is no discharge, just a dry rash and so much itchy. So, so much itchy.

There is no way for me to get to my doctor any sooner than Monday, and that's only if I can get someone to fill in for me at work. In the meantime I'm hoping someone has an idea of what this may be just so I can do something to try and help it until I can see anyone. Like I said, not an STD. My grandmother thinks it's thrush, but there is no discharge that I can really see so I'm not sure. But it may be.

If anyone can give me some ideas that would be great. I know you aren't doctors, but if anyone has had thrush before and it sounds similar I'd really like ideas on how to get by.
