Hi Sue & Dave
(Just changed it around for Sue)
I got thrush in my mouth and throat (and other unmentionable areas, which I imagine all the ladies know about) when taking antibiotics in hospital. For the oral thrush I was given MYCOSTATIN oral suspension.
Also Dave if you like it, a good natural, live yoghurt will help too and if it's not to sore on the ulcers and you can stand the breath (or if Sue can, suck some crushed garlic) or even put the garlic in the yoghurt. No I'm not kidding, a garlic and natural yoghurt mix are a great remedy fot thrush and it also means you are not shoving even more chemicals into your system.
