Finally Treating Candida

I have written on here several times about having candida. When I first found out, I was in denial. I didn't want to deal with it. I have finally decided to start taking the medicine my Doctor prescribed for me becasue I'm so miserable all the time. Anyway, on Monday, I'm going to start taking the generic for Diflucan for 30 days, and I'm also going to take Natren Healthy Trinity Probiotics along with it. I have never taken probiotics for very longbefore becasue they always made me feel bloated. I'm just wondering what to expect. Am I going to feel wosrse before I feel better? I can never get many answers out of my Doctor, she always says, "everything SHOULD be FINE". Yeah Right. I haven't had many good days since the whole Celiac Disease thing a year ago now. My life is defined as BC and AC - before Celiac and after Celiac. I was such a DIFFERENT person before Celiac. Ok.....my pity party is over. Thanks!!

Hi Lexi,

I hope you are doing OK on your med's for Candida. I have studied Candida quiet a bit since I am susceptible to yeast infections, but I have never asked to be tested for Candida. You are lucky to have a doctor who will even consider Candida, let alone actually diagnose it.

Hang in there - life does get better after a while "AC"!

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By mermaidluver22 · Posted

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!
