| dear rubiose and family, two of my children have apeced and both ahve oral thrush presenting in various forms-the white spots, coating on tongue and inner cheeks to a vague coating on the upper palate and tongue associated with dry mouth and occasional reflux signs. we live in Ireland nad the treatment recommeded to us was DIFLUCAN (anti-fungal) high dose for 2 weeks. this always worked. my eldst(she is 10) now has Gastro-intesetinal problems with recent endoscopy by GI specialist showing candidia growth in upper and middle oesophagus. she now is taking long term dose of Diflucan for 6 months. we all have adapted a yeast restricted diet and this definitely helps and she feels much better. they also attended a dental clinic in Trinity College Dublin(dental Hospital) TCDfor a clinical trial to investigate the link with candida and apeced. although my gang were
negative on the swabs they still attend yearly for review. they suggest using KIN mouthwash but not sure if you use with very young children. woudl you ahve access to a good dental research hospital who could assess the type of candida that your son has and recommend the appropriate treatment. Dr. claire Healy is the Professor in dentristry in TCD. because my daughter has the GI symptoms now i would follwo up the treatment and go with your instinct. we are usually right as parents. take care and good luck with everything, --- On Mon, 8/6/09, rubiose <rubiose@...> wrote:
