Any info on Thrush? |
A dear friend of mine was diagnosed with Thrush. It simply won't go away, despite all the treatment methods the doctors have tried. He's had it since Thanksgiving (2006)! It's just not going away. He already suffers from depression and the Thrush is making his mental health situation worse! His depression has really increased since this Thrush mess started. He's tried various mouth washes, antibiotics, antifungals, and antivirals. He is not immunosuppressed and he doesn't have HIV or AIDS. He's not diabetic. I'm really worried about him! Any ideas? it's very unusual for someone that's older (not a child) and not immunosuppressed to get thrush. it's also quite odd that the meds that have been tried haven't worked. the baseline for treatment is nystatin, i assume he's already used that. thrush is generally very easy to treat. maybe it isn't thrush. i'd consider going to a ENT or dermatology doctor. perhaps they need to culture it and see what's going on. As oddly as this may sound, have him try plain yogurt. Tell him to eat it as well as put it on any rashes if he has any besides in his mouth. It's what my friends and I did when our kids had it and it worked. Just make sure it's plain and not one with sugar in it as the yeast will feed on the sugar and won't go away. I hope it works for him. |
