I have a nephew who may or may not have celiac (has not been tested yet) and he has had a yeast infection for almost 6 months. The doctor gave his mom cream to treat it and now they jsut apply OTC Vagisil. Any suggestions for a stubborn yeast infection?

Me and my kids have this problem a lot...but now that I think about it we havne't since starting a gluten-free diet...interesting.....anyway, give him acidophilis. Yogurt and buttermilk have it, but you can get a chewable vitamin type at the drug store that is good. I use Mason's brand because it's gluten free. I take a pill form, but give my son this. A prescription cure that is great if fluconozole. It's a one pill form for adults, but there is a liquid form for kids that worked great for my infant daughter. yeast infections run in my family terribly bad. I've got more experience that I ever wanted. Another thing is to let the area get air. Go w/out a diaper if he's in one, or just without clothes some if he isn't, even if it's just to sleep. Hope that helps!

My dd suffered for many months with candida before she way diagnosised with celiac disease. You might go to Open Original Shared Link. I also went on this program as well as my dd for several months. You can search the forum for questions pertaining to children. They are are very supportive forum that have a professional that comes online to answer questions.

We've used many different probiotics with dd. It is helpful to have a supplement that doesn't contain too much sugar, if any. The latest one we've tried is gluten-free & CF. The product is forumlated for children by UAS Labs. The supplement is in a base of rice powder. I usually sprinkle the powder in her drink and she dosen't even know it's in there.

Hope this helps! :)

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
