Candida Infection


Serversymptoms

I self diagnose myself as being gluten intolerance, though I also suspect that I may have candida ( yeast intolerance?) and thyroid problems... and in conclusion also malnutriution. In time I suspect I should have a doctors visit soon, and will give awareness of my self diagnose and suspects. I think it may be likely if I get my thyroid and candida test done, and it shows that there is a health problem I may get treatments for both and possible other test done.

Since I would like a accurate test of whether I have a candida problem or not, I have only elimanted yeast from my diet. Though I did not go on a complete candida diet, so if I were to get a candida test done would the results likely come back accurate? So far since eliminated yeast other health problems seem to have been making improvements. I also was wondering, as being gluton intolerance I'am not to eat gluton again... but would I be allowed to tolerate yeast or candida ( since it is naturally within one) again? I suspect I will.

Hi there,

I suspect a similar diagnosis for myself aswell. Asfar as i know it is incredibly dificult to get yeast/candida sorted by just removing yeast so the results should show if there is a problem with it. Some people have a yeast allergy which would be improved by just removing yeast alone i guess.

Do you live in the UK? Im desperately looking for a doctor in the uk that will test for candida...please let me know if you find one!

Good luck with it all,

Heidi

I'm not in Europe, I'm in Lansing, Michigan... and the health system here is one of the worst. I'm having a hard time myself going to the doctors. There are tons of doctors around here that can diagnose my candida and other health problems and none are doing it.... right now I can't even get a appointment. I'm 17 years old, and knowing my oppurtunity of leaving the city for college ( after my senior year coming up), I'm basically taking advantage of it. I'm just really rage, and will feel relief once I leave this city that has neglected my health.

I know I got off topic, but have been dealing with my health problem for too long and little steps are being done.

Thanks for the luck,

You should set a appointment and let them know about your candida, since it may have lead to tons of other health problems...

      Hi, @jeriM, I can attest to Celiac and eye problems being connected!  There's a higher rate of Sjogren's Syndrome in Celiac people than in those without celiac disease.  Sjogren's Syndrome causes dry eyes and can even lead to dry mouth which can alter taste and smell.  Have your doctor check for Sjogren's.  Correct low Vitamin D, which regulates the immune system.  Talk to your nutritionist about including in your diet plenty of Omega Three's. Omega Three's help keep our eyes moist and lubricated.  You know how oil floats on water, same thing with our eyes!  Fun fact:  Our eyes are derived from the same sort of tissues as our digestive tract in a developing fetus. Oh, check your thyroid function, too.  Hashimoto's thyroiditis frequently occurs with Sjogren's. Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster in celiac disease.  I also have Diabetes type two.   Discuss with your nutritionist the benefits of a low histamine diet.  A low histamine diet can help reduce inflammation and gets those inflammation markers down.  I like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that promotes intestinal health. Best wishes!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Ah, Scott,    Ha ha!  Thats almost a reasonable assumption given the prices during the shortage.  However, our eggs?  We always gave them away to friends and seniors we know, so no mansion here.  Now we have to buy eggs like everyone else.   The house we found, we loved so much that it made it worth it for us to give up the chickens.  A hard decision.

      Claritin is an allergy medication which can help with allergy symptoms, but may not be helpful with gluten exposure.

      I know what you mean about the high cost of drugs. I recently had to get meds for my mother from a Canadian pharmacy because only the non-generic version is available is the USA, and it is ~$550 per month here, while in Canada the generic version is only around 1/3 the cost.
