Candida Issues


Ennis-TX

Recommended Posts

Ennis-TX Grand Master

Ok, so as some might already know from mentioning I have a infected abscess and was on antibiotics for over 7 months. I developed some issues with constipation, vomiting, and some others issues including a bunch of new intolerance issues in the last few weeks.

SO I went to the docter and had some test done, I thought for sure it was a SIBO issue but ends it I had no issues in the small but had a candida issues in the large -_- SO I am on some candidaFX stuff to kill it off, I am on a keto/paleo diet for UC so the food list and changes for this is not that drastic, just have to avoid a few of the veggies I use on rotation and get off of xylitol for a while. ANYWAY I am having some odd bowl issues,  during die off etc. gas is normal but hard constipation and stools with a mucus? This constipation is very different from my gluten or UC constipation, I feel like a constipated rabbit the way it comes out. NO large solid masses just a bunch of little ones and it is hard to have a BM. Had to 3x my magnesium citrate to even get it to move and then come in several small BM where I feel I need to go but is so hard.....I am so used to ONE big blockage that this little thing is annoying, time consuming, frustrating and painful. Is this from the candida eating most of the bulk and causing inflammation? The staggering difference of this constipation from my issues I used to have with it and even bouts caused by UC flares or Glutening where IT would just stop and then huge Log after a day or so.

HI Ennis!!

Maybe you could try that Chinese slim tea? makes me go! Are you taking any probiotics? You have to re lubricate your gut! When you are clean?ing the gut your also wiping away Everything.. including the good bacteria. Can you eat yogurt? are you ok with Dairy?

When I get really bad gas or issues I eat a whole quart in one day. I get some high quality probiotics too.

I am lactose intolerant first off, second dairy is a HUGE no with candida  the bad bacteria goes crazy with it. Your supposed to try to starve it off while treating it. NOW the bacteria strains in a yogurt are the type that are in a healthy gut and feed on the bad bacteria to help keep it in check, The stuff I am on to kill it off has one strain in it. I am also consuming a non dairy unsweetened yogurt in small amounts with each meal to get more of the good stuff back in. Will look into the tea, I know there is a type of laxative tea, tip of my tongue I have it in a cart on lucky vitamin. I need to do some more research into it and ask my doctor first. With a damaged gut, and FUBAR immune system its like a blind folded pinata party trying to find fixes for stuff....you miss and break the wrong thing many times before you hit your goal. At least I can laugh about this stuff after so many years.

      I would hesitate to recommend tetracycline or any antibiotic as a long term therapy option because of the negative impact it has on the gut biome. I took it for years as a teenager for acne and I'm convinced it was a contributing factor in my having developed celiac disease.

      Welcome to the forum, @Pamp8, I stopped foods high in iodine, like dairy and eggs, kelp and iodized salt.   I take Niacinamide also called Nicotinamide or Vitamin B3.  I haven't taken the tetracycline with it.   It seems to make the blisters disappear quicker. I also use tallow balm, a cream made from beef fat, which has been used for thousands of years.  It is absorbed into the skin better than creams made from plants.  It helps prevent or lesson scarring.  See the study below. Two Cases of Dermatitis Herpetiformis Successfully Treated with Tetracycline and Niacinamide "The combination of tetracycline and nicotinamide can be recommended as a useful therapy for patients where dapsone is not available or for patients who do not tolerate dapsone." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30390734/

      First off, I’m so sorry you’ve been dealing with this for so long—being sick for half your life is unimaginably tough, and it’s huge that you’ve finally gotten some answers. A celiac diagnosis can feel overwhelming (especially on top of being vegan!), but it’s also a turning point. Your body is about to start healing, and that’s hopeful! This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Yes, it is likely your villi healed, but if you are exposed to gluten regularly again the damage will likely come back and cause some potentially serious health issues.

      Hey yall! I am dealing with a new diagnosis. I have been sick in some sort of way for 10 years. I am 22. I can’t remember a time in the last decade I have not had some strange symptom. This last year it got way worse. I lost 40 pounds and had to drop out of school. I ended up getting and endo and blood tests and got positive results for celiac. I am looking for advice of ANY type. I am vegan so this is a big adjustment to add this to my diet. Thansk fro the help.
