I eat natural bio-active yoghurt, lots of it. I also take bio cultures capsules daily. If I let up on these for just one minute, thrush creeps it's way in again. It's just another of the insidious joys steroids bring - steroids, the gift that keeps on giving...........

Hi polkadotcom

That's interesting about the bioculture capsules, l'd been on Steroids for almost 4 years, with no Thrush issues.

Since l finished Chemo a year ago I've suffered from oral Thrush, I've had several swobs & multiple courses of treatment both oral suspension & tablets yet it still persists.

I've been eating yogurt with my breakfast but now l'd be keen to try the bioculture capsules, any recommendations or brands?

Thanks

No, only that you buy a really good reputable brand. H & B are good for that kind of thing, as they carry various brands as well as their own.

I am male, 71 year old. Had PMR 3 years down to 4mg now. Last year had terrible thrush diagnosed with type 2 diabetes! Might be an idea to get that checked out?
