Hi,
I am having a difficult time understanding how you would have a tampon inside your vagina for two or more years? I am not sure how old you are, but in those two years...did you try to use another tampon, have sexual intercourse (or any penetrative sexual activities) or go to the gynecologist for exams?
Gardella is a vaccine, not a type of infection.
What symptoms are you having, that you are needing to know what to talk to your doctor about? You would not need to know what type of test to request--that is the doctor's job to determine based on your symptoms. There is no "thinking" if you have a staph infection or not; there are specific symptoms with infections, and if your doctor determines that you do not have a staph infection, you might have another type of infection or condition.
Can you tell us what your symptoms are, so we can help you better prepare to talk with the doctor?
When did you discover the tampon that you forgot about?
