Hi everyone,

I feel like I have a systemic candida infection. I have requested a blood test from my doc to find out once and for all. I ordered a home test kit but it was a waste of time and money....couldn't get enough blood out. Hoping to have test tomorrow as today feel really bad. Aches, lethargic, sore eyes, nasal congestion,sinus pains, horrible throat, tongue coating, bitter taste and breath. I get this regularly and feel it is down at least in part to the candida. For me I think problem stems from the stomach. I do not have the correct balance of Hcl to process food and kill off bacteria. The yeast live of breads and sugars and the more it takes hold the more you crave these. I was taking Hcl Betaine and the symptoms abated but I need to find out how much I am actually producing naturally as I suffer from LPR. When you have the right balance of Hcl you can kill of the yeast and pylori and allow the good bacteria to take hold. The issue of the swollen taste buds is I feel a result of Laryngo Pharyngeal Reflux (LPR). The acid enters the throat and mouth causing the circumvillate papillae to become inflammed. If you see a white spot on top of this it could be oral candida or possibly plaque forming on the raised taste bud. This is the problem when you have what you feel to be two illnesses running in tandem....they can mirror each other. I often have a thick white tongue coating especially when I feel like this but is it the candida? Also at the time when I feel like this I have post nasal drip from my sinuses and the coating could come from that or is the candida and the LPR causing this also. I really feel I am battling on two fronts with these illnesses competing to make their mark. The only thing I know is when I feel good generally I do not have congestion, PND or bitter taste but is that because the LPR has abated or the candida is in check or both?

Hi everyone,
I too have this chronic. It just seems to never disappear completely, and I have had it over 3 years now. I also have Sjogrens, but I have yet to have some relief for it. My doctor has put me on nystatin rinse, and diflucan for a two week span. But she told me that if that didn't clear it up, it wasn't thrush. Well, turns out she is wrong. It IS thrush. I just can't get my doctor to treat it properly. I am going to see her next week. I think I will have to inform her that there is such a thing, and its called systematic candida infection. Thanks so much for this thread.
