Thrush would mean a VERY compromised immune system, so I'm voting with the MD. Can you see a medical professional?

Has anyone been in this situation after surgery??

I read somewhere that a symptom of serious dehydration is white on the tongue. Maybe that is the issue?

Yes! I had this problem after surgery and it went away on its own after a couple of weeks. I've seen a lot of other people post the same issue over the last year. I wonder why your Dr isn't aware of this?

I had thrush after surgery my bariatric doc said it was from the antibiotic and having 85% of my stomach removed compromised my immune system. He gave me a mouthwash and I started eating Greek yogurt to rebalance my stomachs PH, yes it is true it generally happens with a compromised or weak immune system but being on that antibiotic and the stomach removal my system was pretty compromised.

And I had a bad taste with a white film on my tongue, before I went and saw my bariatric doc I thought it was dehydration but all my labs were perfect and I looked great.

Oh and I got a yeast infection too...that was awesome. So I also went on diflucan.

Thanks. I think i have one too. So what should do? Go to my pcp?

Yes same thing happen to me and I got a yeast infection as well. I hate yogurt so I just try to drink a lot of Water and I put vinegar in my bath water (natural way to cure yeast infection)

[tessies 224]

Go to your pcp or if you can't I would go to an urgent care or quick care. You need diflucan if you have a yeast infection. If its thrush they give you some crappy mouthwash that doesn't work. Can you eat yogurt yet?
