Trichomoniasis that will not go away! Please help!

In October I had regular checkup after roughly a month of itching, a smell that increasingly worse as the weeks went on and have discharge. I was told I had trichomoniasis and I was put on 1 round of metronidazole where I took 4 pills all at once. I felt fine for a day and then the symptoms started coming back. I went back and got another checkup and it was still there. I was then prescribed metronidazole again but two doses, 4 pills one day and another 4 pills two days after. This still did not work. I was then prescribed a metronidazole cream that I had to insert for 5 days. Same thing, I was fine for a day or two and it came back. I just went to the OB again and it still did not go away. I was prescribed metronidazole again but I had to take 4 pills a day for 5 days. I really thought It was gone and went 4 days feeling ok but tonight I feel the itching coming back. I was also prescribed a yeast infection pill just in case the antibiotics brought one on. Has anyone heard of this happening?? Could the doctor be mistaken or is there anything else I can do to get rid of this??? Please help! This has got me so depressed! I have not had sex with anyone since September. Is there anything else that could cause me to be reinfected?
