Hi folks,
Long time no see. I'm in a bit of a quandry; from feeling fine last Thursday at a bbq where I eat sensibly it started getting cold so we came indoors, and while thawing out a bit I had a quick sneezing fit, which pulled a muscle badly in the side of my chest, and compounded by a stinking cold I'm ripping myself to pieces every time I cough, plus I've now got oral thrush right at the back of my mouth. I got Daktarin from the pharmacy, but its impossible to use I have to put it on my finger and twist my finger round to try and reach the back of my mouth where it hurts the most and round the epiglotis but most drops off and I'm slavering like a rabid dog, so end up losing it and after 1 day it seems a waste of time.
What I'm hoping someone might know is; is there any lozenges I can get to suck which will treat the thrush as doing it this way it seems I'm never going to get rid of it. Thing is I keep reading that sky high bs causes it but I'm not much up and quite often in the correct area. This is the 1st time I've had OT, I've had the other end a few times which dr gave me some cream for and it was gone in a day, but at this rate if I can't get pastiles I'm doomed. My body hates me at the moment. My pulled muscle has spread because of all the coughing. I'm doing 6-8 steam inhalations daily, can't sleep much as can't lay down without coughing my guts up, which hurts my side and to cap it all my legs are as swollen to hell but at least my circulation booster is helping with those, but I know its a slow process. Sorry this is such a long thread but I'm at the smashing my head on the wall stage almost pmsl but basically can anyone HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
