I've been suffering with thrush for 4 weeks now but only managed to get the correct medication last Friday - 400mg loading dose of fluconazole then 200mg daily for 2 weeks, plus cream for me and nystan drops for DS.
At first I thought it was working as the stabbing pains seemed to ease but they are now back and as bad as before. I've been changing breast pads frequently and washing bras on hot then ironing them. Also trying to wash nipples before and after feeding.
I've been reading about other things that can help such as washing with vinegar or bicarb of soda and might try doing that.
Anyway, getting a bit desperate now, so does anyone have any advice as to how they dealt with it and how long it took to get rid of? Thanks
