Hi everyone,
I posted a very similar thread in General Health not too long ago, inquiring if headache & nausea, etc. were common Candida die-off symptoms and was looking for peoples' experiences, but now I have a more serious question. Is THROAT SWELLING a common/can throat swelling be a Candida die-off symptom? I have read that Candida die-off can closely mimic an allergic reaction, and almost everytime I have an allergic reaction I experience the throat swelling. I am absolutely miserable. For the past week or a little more, I've been nauseous on and off, spacey, dizzy, extremely tired, have chest tightness and pressure, throat swelling on and off, major adrenalin-rush feelings along with heart palpitations and then temporary symptom relief, anxiety, odd thoughts, and some depression. Even always sick, I don't feel this bad. This all started when I completely eliminated sugar and all carbs except for rice out of my diet a little over a week ago. Before that, I was already doing pretty much the Candida diet, eating only meat, no fermented stuff, gluten, molds, dairy, etc. Would just eliminating my sugar cause this much of a die-off and these terrible symptoms or have I been eating something I'm allergic to again? Any opinions would be HIGHLY valued and appreciated!
Thanks,
