Oral Thrush

I had a recent tonsillectomy and after staying in the hospital because of a swollen Uvula I had massive doses of IV Cleocin and 600 MG 3 times a day pills when I got home. So I developed a bad case of Thrush. I was prescribed Diflucan which cleared it right up, and for a while my tongue was completely pink and no white for a while after I finished Diflucan. But I am off antibiotics and Diflucan and my tongue has a white coating on it. My doctor said that it's normal to have some yeast on my tongue and in my body, but when it overgrows and is severe it's something to worry about and that my immune system is keeping it in check so if this was caused by HIV would it have been as horrible as it was from surgery all the time?. Is this true that it's normal to have thrush all the time, just not severe? or is he feeding me a load of ****? Also since the Diflucan got rid of the problem I can rule out of it?
