Hi, there!
Oral thrush, if linked to HIV, usually would appear when the immune system starts to be compromised, which can happen many years after the infection. Therefore someone with oral thrush, related to HIV, would always have a positive HIV test, as it is very likely that this person would have possibly be positive for a long time. Oral thrush has no effect in the results of an HIV test whatsoever.
Best wishes,
Jose
