What is wrong with me??

I'm not even sure what topic to put this under...

Ok, 3 months ago I got the birth control shot.  It was my first time getting it.  2 weeks later, I got a yeast infection.  It happens so whatever. I went to the store and bought the medicine and took it.  All better.  2 weeks later, it comes back.  I go to the dr. she says she doesn't see any yeast at all and if it still bothers me I should shove some yogurt up there.  2 months go by and I still never feel quite right down there. Sometimes it hurts after sex, sometimes it doesn't.  I though well maybe I'm just not lubed up enough when I let him pentrate me.  Well I get another yeast infection!  I go to the store and get the medicine and take it.  Symptoms go away for a few days but then return with a really bad smell. I go to the dr and she tests me. I have BV.  So she gives me meds for BV and then gives me another birth control shot after talking me into it. I thought these yeast infections were being caused by the shot.  So I take the BV meds and everything is great. I feel good down there.  That was about 2 weeks ago.  3 days after the BV meds were over....boom another yeast infection.  I talked to the dr and she said sometimes yeast infections happen along w/ BV and to take an over the counter medicine.  So I did and it went away.  Guess what?  It's back!!!  Last night I had sex and it burned like crazy afterwards when I pee'd.  

I don't know what is going on here but I am so sick of this.

On top of all this, I have dysplasia. I have had the stuff removed (lasered out) 2 times already and they have me scheduled for a 3rd time on the 18th.  Fun fun.  

Can I get a break??

Well I can't be much help in this area ..I have had so many friends complaining how the docs don't help them at all with these things, and honestly I don't know how serious it has to get in order for them to actually look into it. Just go to a specialist, force your doctor to send you to one, or go to a private clinic if you guys have one. Besides that I am moving to europe because none of my problems have been adressed either. Health is health right?
