Guest guest Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Some liver doctors will not treat patients who take milk thistle. They want you following what they order, and nothing else. So, I would check with my doctor if I were you.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 My liver doctor told me that people with ESLD often die from secondary infections like pneumonia and not even their liver disease. The reason being that our sick liver causes a decrease in our immune system. Last summer my pain doctor noticed a " left shift " in my blood work, a term used to describe a shift on the left side of the chart used in the days before computer readouts. It usually indicates an infection somewhere in your body. http://www.ehow.com/about_5172200_shift-left-blood-testing_.html Around the same time I developed thrush infection for the second time. My pain doctor finds all these tiny details because I see him each and every month, one bonus derived out of crazy over regulation. Have your doctor check your blood work. My feeling are that cirrhosis can have an effect on your eye infection no different than a diabetic.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 There are medications for thrush, and I have had it a number of times. It frequently follows a treatment with certain antibiotics. It has never gone away for me. For women who get it vaginally, there is over the counter meds, but for oral thrush I don't know of any. You have to get a prescription.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 OMG, you got it too?? Mine has been starting up at the beginning of summer, like late may, and stays for two or two and a half months. I am still having a relaps this morning, mostly my gums. They gave me a prscription called fluconazole, and I took it for 10 days with a 10 additional days refill. Good luck with it!! Hope you feel better soon.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 I know that particular happy dance. A dental hygenist broke the rim of my jawbone with her ultrasonic device a few years back... It hurt so bad for over 60 days, I dreampt of sticking the barrel of my 45 in there and blowing my jaw off, (during an Elk hunting trip) thankfully it was only a bad dream, and the next day the razor sharp piece of bone popped to the surface, and I fished it out with tweezers. I did that very same happy dance. There is Nothing like relief from a foreign body. God Bless you.
