I was diagnosed with candidas or thrush about two weeks ago , have not felt well for three weeks now, headache,nausea,heartburn,diarrhea,fatigue,bodyaches my stomache is tender and rumbling all the time. Doctor has prescribed Nystatin and Diflucan (4-150mg ) I am also taking zantac and imodium. I have really been watching what I eat . I am scared of taking this medicine after reading the side effects. My throat is still tender all red and white. Should I go to a specialist in this field? ?

Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
The tender stomach can be due to gastric acidity caused due to intake of heavy dose of antibiotics.
I would advice you to administer anti gastric tablets half an hour before food.
Take a routine balanced diet.
If necessary,you can consult an oral pathologist to get the biopsy investigation.
Meanwhile,maintain oral hygiene well.
Hope this helps.
