Hi, can anyone help me?, i've got thrush but my problem is i'm allergic to canesten, gyno daktarin & nystatin. I started with it on tuesday morning after being on anti-biotics for 2 weeks & so rang my doctor who gave me a fluconazole tablet, it did'nt help so i went back to see him on wed & he prescribed gyno-daktarin, i used it as soon as i could but then the burning pain hit, i ended up rolling around the floor in agony, my mum suggested i get into a cold bath which helped then rang the emergency doctor, he saw me & would'nt treat me with me being allergic to other thrush treatments in the past & told me to go to tesco's & buy a big pot of yogurt !!!!....well i did & it helped...a little, so thur i went back to my doctor who has now put me on a course of the fluconazole capsules for 7 days, the trouble is i'm still so damn sore........anyone out there with any suggestions, i'm so desperate i'll try just about anything, thanks vickimac

this may sound really daft, but I guess it is the burning more than anything else? In the chemists, there is somthing that is called Kook and Soothe - meant for migraines, but give it a try - will help to cool down, also try tepid salt water and if you have a microwave, put in a cloth for a minute or two so it is warm and alternate cool and warm. Also, a good drink if you can stand it is Robinsons Lemon Barley water. Flushes out the acidity in the urinary tract that causes all this mess. Hope this all helps and you feel better real soon,
in my herbal encyclopedia it says you should take two garlic capsules every night this will prevent it reoccuring..you can buy the odourless ones so you wont reek of garlic..it also says about the yogurt ..and aloe vera gel is also good externally..you could also try aloe vera tablets and echinacea tablets..to boost your system...the diet you should have is gluten free low fat high fibre ..do not eat ..butter cheese ..milk..bread..beer..dried fruits..mushrooms..pickles..or preservatives..sugar..syrup..sweeteners..chocolate..pastry..and puddings should also be avoided..take vitamin a and zinc daily..in other words live on fruit ..vegetables and organic fish and meat..
