Oral thrush?

[Rosie2m]

Hi guys, As some of you know already I’ve just started taking Levothyroxine I’ve had around 8days worth so far but I have now got what appears to be oral thrush... do you think this could be a reaction to the tablets or maybe just another illness as I’m so run down? Tia x

Candida can be a symptom of being hypothyroid so most probably it is not the levo which can take some time to have an effect.

Ah ok Thankyou x

Candida is common with Hashimoto's

This is one of the most down to earth weblinks about the connection

Thankyou, I’ll have a read xx

Loads more links online .....but many have extensive lists of "essential " supplements

daily Actimel may enough to improve things.
