Painful Little Bumps, Lesions On Scalp, Burning Tongue With White Coat, Lethargy. Taken Difucan. How To Get Relief?

How often is it safe to take Difucan 150mg?
First thing to check is fasting and post prandial blood sugar levels. Were they done? Pancreatitis due to any reason cannot produce enough insulin to push in the blood sugar into the cells. If insulin is not released properly the blood sugar shoots up which is an excellent nidus for the bacteria and fungi to grow.
It can grow at any part of the body from scalp to toe. A possible explanation for an uncommon description you just gave me.
I wonder when was the last time you had a complete health check up with all the values in place.
Diflucan is a safe drug and it can be single dose drug to control superficial fungal infections. There is no specific time limit that established to call it a safe administration.
If you have more points to share about your health, please let me know.


Why is it that when i east sweets or bread that my tongue gets this white coating on it after a few hours? I have been suffering with this condition for over 10 years. Nystatin powder helps my tongue burning that the doctor prescribed for me as well as the Diflucan tablets. I had the diabetic test ran and i am normal.
By the way when the doctor had Lab Corp ran IGE and IGA levels for yeast in my blood they came up highly elevated. I know a lot of doctors refuse to acknowledge that yeast can't be the problem but there are millions of people who are having my issues and worse. Candida forums tell part of this ugly story of all these people who are suffering severely. Robs you of your quality of life. They can' all be liars that is for sure.
Thanks for extra information.
Chronic yeast infections are resistant for complete cure. However you are giving enough medium for them to grow better in the form of simple sugars.
Second you have lower immunity than normal individuals because of past medical history ( pancreatitis, antibiotic abuse). You have to be much more careful to handle any new infection. During an immunocompromised state even mild fungi like candida can be devastating which can curtail the quality of life.
The fact that Nystatin helps point that the coating is yeast.
Possible helpful tips:
1) Clean the mouth and teeth after every meal or snack preferably with over the counter Listerine kind preparations. This flushes off the extra particles to build germs
2) Diet need should be addressed by expert. It should constitute with extra flavenoids and carotenoids. It should mainly constitute greens and fruits at least 8 cups per day. A Diet expert is better to advise than me.
3) You can follow the forums and find out new ways how others are fighting the candidal infections and try them.
4) Ofcourse if you have candidiasis in the mouth we need to check the oesophageal candidiasis as well. So a Endoscopist help is needed. \
5) It is not a bad idea to take IV antifungals, steroids if the above would not help.
6) If everything fails, you can shift to other alternative therapies which are less toxic to the body than IV medication.
I will keep you posted anything better comes up to my mind. Let me know if this is clear.


There is nothing like Carb free diet and sugar free diet produced. It is just marketing by majors that allures people to buy them. I am unhappy to say that. I would like you not to waste money on this. Since it is about taking complex sugars and flushing off extra particles stuck in the mouth, that act as reservoirs of fungi.
What are the complex sugars, where are they available and how to plan for an immunogenic diet is done by competent expert dietitian.
I was saying about antifungal injections available for resistant fungi against topical antifungals. I do not know if steroids is a good idea. Check with an Immunologist as well.
If you have queries further please post, else close the discussion and rate my answer. We can pursue later after you try the above ideas.
Good luck.


Though here I pray for your health. For now please close and rate the answer.
