Stupid Thrush

I am really tired of thrush!!! Will's tongue has gone from one lession to an entire breakout. I'm feeling worse and I'm not sure what to do about it. I now have family planning Medicaid, which won't cover a checkup on the infection, so I'll have to p-o-p and we can't afford that. William's 'scripts do not seem to be working and the acidophilus isn't helping me any. Does this get worse before it gets better?

  1. **Hugs** I have never personally had thrush but lots of my close friends have. It will get better, but it needs treated. Thrush is basically a yeast infection. One thing you can try - and you don't need a dr for this - is Genetian Violet. It will stain his mouth and tongue but lots of friends have used it and had sucesss with the genetian violet killing the yeast.

  2. I tried that but he had some sort of reaction to it. Well, we don't know if it was a reaction to the gentian violet or to the milk spreading over his face. The doctor didn't say anything about that, just gave me nystatin for him.
