Beside that awful aftertaste, Nystatin isn't as fast acting as Diflucan.

I was up to 400mg/day at one point (Diflucan that is). (I understand that people with HIV infections can get up to 800mg/day). The standard "maintenance dose" for cancer patients I read someplace is around 50 mg./day. I had to switch to Nystatin "swish & spit" in the end because I had taken entirely too much Diflucan. I just threw out the last container of it as I haven't needed it for quite a while.

It can suppress the WBC (nuetropenia??) if taken in large enough amounts.

I have never heard of New Zealand Manuka honey - what's the deal with that?

I should mention that my oncologist advised me to take colloidial silver (for mouth sores) which was listed on Quackwatch.

I was fortunate with the skin on my neck. The worst I had to deal with was a mild sunburn. It did go through an itchy phase and I was prescribed a steroidal cream which I only had to use a couple of times. It was the first area to completely heal as well, with the mouth sores and blisters being the last.
