I don't think it has to be on the tongue

it doesn't have to be on the tongue. Thrush in the mouth is really painful.

Can you go to a different pharmasist today? I agree, it doesn't have to be on the tongue.

is there a temperature? apparantly oral thrush doesnt give you a temperature. A nurse told me dd (20 months) had oral thrush last week but it turned out that she actually had hand foot and mouth. keep your eyes open for bumps on hands and feet.
