> I also have had several mothers with nipple/breast yeast who also
had oral thrush.
I haven't seen any moms who would admit to it. But one mom with
persistent nipple thrush that finally cleared when she began taking
nystatin capsules herself commented that "the funny taste at the back
of my mouth" disappeared after she'd been on the capsules a while. We
guessed that the reinfecting source for her nipples had been her own
mouth.
Another mom uses inhalants to control asthma, which she said makes her
a prime candidate for yeast infections. She had "funny designs" along
the sides of her tongue, which I couldn't really see - not white, she
said, but more as if her teeth had left marks on her tongue. But she
was also prone to whitened cracks at the corners of her mouth. All of
that disappeared with diflucan.
