Seems after nearly a month, I am told I don't have thrush. The meds did nothing and then the culture came back negative for thrush. The doc said it is some kind of bacteria. It looks like thrush, feels like thrush. I have a yellow-white patch that can't be scraped off on my tongue extending down the back of my throat as far as I can see. I also have these patches on the insides of my gums on both sides of my mouth, between teeth and tongue. The doc said to keep on being vigilant about cleaning my mouth. I started with manuka honey two days ago and am hoping that will work. Anyone have this before? Any suggestions? -Michelle
