Dan had thrush 3 times (2x during treatment) and one after. It was amazing how his pain went through the roof until the thrush was under control.

Sweetpea, talk to your doctor about the possiblility of thrush returning and ask to keep an rx of the medication at home.

The first time Dan had thrush it was Sunday and I waited until Monday when we went in to get the Rx...by that time the thrush had spread at an unbelievable rate. So the next time we found it at 11:00 at night and I called the doctor immediately and drove to a 24 hour pharmacy that was an hour away so we could get a jump on it. After that, I finally asked to have an rx that I could have at the ready. They were reluctant because the medication is hard on the liver or kidneys (or both) if over used. But, I was getting pretty darned good at diagnosing. As you will be too if you ever get it again.

The good news is that once you get the thrush under control the other pain will likely seem oddly manageable. Thrush sucks!!

Hope you are feeling better soon!!
