Systemic Candida Blood Work


Christina98

Recommended Posts

Christina98 Explorer

hey everyone......I recently found out I have a gluten intolerance.For many years I thought I had candida because of mu symptoms and the fact that I grew up sick all the time and literally consumed antibiotics sometimes every month/every other, for years then took Minocycline for 4 years straight for acne.

I recently went to the Dr to have my blood drawn to check for candida antibodies and it was negative they also left my blood in some kind of culture to see if candida feed or grow over a 2 week period.They said it was negative for that as well.

IS THIS TESTING ACCURATE? SHOULD IT REALLY HAVE SHOWN SOMETHING? I DONT KNOW WHEN TO DOUBT PHYSICIANS AND THERE TESTS ANYMORE because I am always hearing that tons of tests yields false positives and negatives :unsure: ????/ Like thyroid tests sometimes do

I WOULD LOVE TO THINK IT IS REAL IT WOULD BE A DELIGHT TO KNOW I DONT SUFFER FROM CANDIDA!!!!!

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
