A member asked:
Can you get meningitis from oral thrush and if so what is the likelihood? i have severe anxiety so i imagine i'm talking myself into a sore neck

Very unlikely: Very, very unlikely. Seek help from your dentist or oral surgeon. He or she can prescribe medication that will get rid of your thrush. Also, they can help you determine why this is happening and you can take steps to help prevent this problem in the future.

Extremely unlikely: If i were to say no someone would find an obscure case somewhere in the world to argue with me, but i've never heard of it.Of the things that cause meningitis this is down at the bottom of the list & i can't recall ever hearing of a case.
