Has any one had this while on Remicade. I got it after the hospital when I was on 60 pred 2 antibiotics and rem and 6mp, but now I am on 10 pred , had fourth in fusion a few weeks ago and cort enema, and my tongue is bothering me. Though it started after the barium test. I thought it was from that at first, but it's not going away. Only link seems the Remicade which I am done with.

     OH I HEAR ya.....that is the worse feeling, isn't it?   I used to get thrush a lot.  Seems like when I took prednisone along with an antibiotic it would appear.  It is NASTY.   The doctor prescribed lozenges.  As a matter of fact, I still have them in my medicine cabinet..have to get rid of them.  It says on the bottle Clotrimazole 10 mg Troche.  They work well but taste lousy.

I've been swishing with nystatin, it's not as bad as when I was everything, but I feel likevit's from the remicade
