oral thrush and mouth ulcers

I hope that someone has a home remedy for this. I started having oral thrush and mouth ulcers right before I found out that I have hypothyroidism.I also had a yeast infection.I've tried three rounds of Duflican and Magic Mouthwash.I got rid of the yeast infection, but I still have the thrush and ulcers.My dr. said that he might have misdiagnosed, and that it wasn't thrush.He wrote another RX for another kind of mouthwash, something to do with allergies.That didn't help either.I'm trying 5 drops of tea tree oil in water and using that as a mouthwash.So far, no luck. Has anyone had success treating this problem? Thanks.

I have had oral thrush for 6 months now. I have tried medicine from the Doctor, tea tree oil in water, and even some herbal remedies called Cenax I think. Now I tried Peroxide and water. It left little white patches on the inside of my lip!

I am not sure if that is good or bad. I was hoping to get your input on how things went with your peroxide use.
