Hello all. I just had a nasty dose of Thrush and was prescribed Fluconazole. My BS shot up a couple of days afterwards and I wondered if anyone else had experience of this.

The term "big boned" lol repeatedly told this growing up!
When I took Fluconazole my levels were okay but it could be that your levels increased through discomfort as thrush is really nasty. The stress of it can impact higher bg together with bad sleep, pain, plus a whole mountain of other reasons. Hope you feel better soon x

Thank you. You're probably right there as I also am in the middle of a nasty flare-up of lichen sclerosis .

Thank you for the support; I'm always grateful. I've bought Caneston with support from a lovely pharmacist who thankfully is a locum for our usual fairly 'unsympathetic' man. I would have found it difficult to talk to him.
