Hiya

I first got oral thrush when I was put on prednisolone last year. Haven't had it since.

Im taking antibiotics for this Kidney infection, which is the second one in 8 weeks. Which I think has given me the oral thrush. I had a look on the internet and augmentin does seem to have that effect.

One of the "cures" was raw garlic! eek! But hell if it works I shall give it a go!

I did see that one of the causes could be a dry mouth. I get a very dry mouth from taking propanthaline to combat the nasty side effects from Mestinon. So I guess it was just waiting to happen.

The back of my mouth leading into the top of my throat is just burning. My tongue and the inside of my mouth have just gone white, no raised plaques just white.

Just another wonderful day in the crazy world of Rach x
Going to get hubby to get me some garlic and some Daktarin Gel and hope that clears it. Plus some probiotic drinks as I could definately use some good bacteria!

I can't face going to the Drs at present Im avoiding contact with the medical Profession ( I use that term losely!). I just feel so let down by them.

Plus my boy doggie has hurt himself. Think its his back. Hes been to the vets tonight and acted like he didn't have a care in the world! The vet said he wasn't surprised as my doggie didn't want to be the weakest one in the pack. Poor baby can't get up on the bed, finding it hard to get up and down the stairs. Hes curled up on his bed - which he never sleeps on! as mummies kingsize is far more his style! Hes had an injection so we will see how it goes. Hes got some anti inflammatories to take for the next couple of days. Hopefully it will settle down.

So yes this is the house of the sick......officially!!

Cheers
Love
