Does this sound like an Infection or Thrush?

I too am sorry for your loss, mate.
No doubt the Dr will take a swab so they can be sure one way or another. I was of the understanding that thrush often clears up when you get your period... so if you are bleeding atm (?) I would think infection?
Not sure what they would do - although obviously a course of ABs would be in order...
I hope whatever it is clears up quickly for you.

Thankyou for your replies. Yes I am still bleeding (so no noticable discharge), on my last days I think as it has finally slowed, if that is the case I think it is an infection, I'm glad that I have an appointment today as I do not want it getting any worse. I was unsure if you could take AB's when breastfeeding, I cannot remember the last time I was on them it has been years, oh well I am sure the doctor will know what to do.

Thanks again

There are a few abx which are ok to take when breastfeeding, I'm sure you GP will sort you out

I dont think infections get uncontrollably itchy though?

Check out the thread on treating thrush with garlic if its confirmed its indeed thrush. I find that remedy works way better than the over the counter products, heaps of others have found that too.
