I have had thrush for almost three weeks now and nothing works. I took two rounds of difucon, nysatin, and these lozenges. Nothing seem to address this growing yuckiness in my mouth. Yesterday, the doc took a culture to send to the lab to make sure what I have is thrush and, if it is, to see if it is resistant to difucon. In the meantime the doc ordered a higher dose of difucon. Has anyone encountered this before? -Michelle
