Red face Candidiasis!!!!

Hello all. I have been suffering from an off balance sensation for the past 5yrs. Doctors have never officially diagnosed me with anything. I have had test after test after test including 2 MRI'S. All have come up with no answers to this problem. I was tested for allergies a couple of years ago. I tested positive for a few different things. Such as polen,cats,certain trees.....etc etc. One condition that the nurse told me that I had was Candidiasis (Yeast). The ear nose and throat doctor that I currently have.... Has what I would call bad bedside manners to say the least.He didn't even know I had this condition until a couple of visits later. Anyways....to make along story short. This doctor has brushed this off as a possible suspect to my problem. So inturn so did I. For the past few years I just learned to live with it. In the past few weeks the balance has been acting up more than what I'm use to. So again I'm looking for answers. I was flipping through a nutritional book and was stunned to learn of what Candidiasis can do to your system if left untreated.Out of a possible 22 syntoms...I have 17 of those. The other syntoms were realated problems that the woman would encounter. My question is this. Can this condition be treated with a prescription as apose to a six month flush? Regards D. Holloway.

hello,

i've been working from a cadida perspective for the past couple months. A few people including my fiance informed me that this might be my problem. I suffer from acute vertigo and dizziness, and i always get diagnosed with sinusitis or allergic rhinitis. My ears always seem full and i am losing some hearing in my left ear. Do you suffer from any hearing loss or a full feeling in the ears? The information you found is correct..candida are very tricky and smart. They can mimic many different diseases and give a person many different symptoms. Usually, being the contreversial medical topic that it is, it goes undiagnosed, leaving the patient with a clean bill of health and yet, still feeling crappy(for a lack of better words). My fiance was diagnosed about 7 years ago by a renowned chiropractor in the texas area. She was tested and everything. Her primary symptoms are weight gain and allergies. The bottom line is that you may be on the right track taking your symptoms from a cadiasis perspective. The thing to do is look at your history, that is, if your doctor won't help you. Most people that are likely to have this are people who have taken long courses of antibiotics, prednisone, birth control pills, and even poor diets can lead to the condition. My information comes from numerous web sites, dr. crooks book "the yeast connection", local naturopaths, and from some experience. You may want to try your local herb-health food store. There you can ask about what anti-fungals and probiotics that may be effective. I know that caprylic acid, kyolic, grapefruit seed extract are good antifungals. Recently, i have found a product called "candex" to be really effective. Good luck and keep us posted.

Thank-you for your response. The doctor has put me on some med.He only gave me 5 days worth.I guess in hopes that It would clear up. Well it has not at this point. I do however feel a little better. I'm going back to him to see what the next step will be. I will keep you posted. D. Holloway.
