You're so right about the acid foods.  After I got rid of the bacteria, I 
took a vitamin C tablet, and that brought the burning right back.  Now I'm 
trying 
to get rid of the effects of the acid.

The vitamin C tablet I found after much collecting of different products, and 
muscle testing, is exactly the one you mentioned--buffered with calcium 
ascorbate.  It is time-release as well.  

You can get the 50 mg. containers of D-mannose from the Tahoma Clinic 
Dispensary (1-888-893-6878), www.tahoma-clinic.com.  There are several other 
sources, 
but last time I checked this was the least expensive.

I have a wonderful booklet on the use of D-Mannose for bladder infections.  I 
think I ordered it from the Tahoma Clinic as well.  The title is D-MANNOSE & 
BLADDER INFECTION, by Jonathan Wright, M.D. and Lane Lenard, Ph.D.
