Getting through thrush whilst BFing

Anyone managed to continue BFing despite getting nipple/breast thrush?

DD appears to have had it for over a month and she had lost her appetite as a result so was supplementing with formula as per HV's advice. We thought she was refusing the breast (and sometimes bottle) because of reflux but now we are fairly sure it's thrush because I now have it in my breast! It bloody hurts. Anyway, as I have been supplementing, my supply has inevitably taken a but of a hit although I did try and pump as much as I could.

Anyone had similar experiences and did you manage to continue Bfing after the thrush cleared up? I've been prescribed Daktarin cream and DD the oral gel.
