Posting for traffic.

Has anyone had this recently? I had a virus at Christmas and took oral steroids for the cough after, wonder if it’s triggered something.

Persistent thrush, I only took a Canestan capsule less than a week ago, but it didn’t seem to work. Have the cream too.

Itchy eyes. No gunk, they’re pretty dry and anything coming from them is crusty. But so itchy. I’ve been bathing with pre boiled water.

Skin changes on my face. Perioral dermatitis (had this years ago), which seems to have spread/changed and now really blotchy, spotty looking cheeks but virtually flat, so not actual acne/spots. My skin feels quite tight too, isn’t too flaky but definitely dry.

I’ve stripped back my skincare and only using gentle cleansers and moisturising regularly with E45 but it’s not helping.

I feel like it’s all linked? I’ve never been prone to thrush before but I can’t shake this one.

Would you not be better off asking your doctor?

Entirely impossible to get through on the phone let alone an appointment!
