Hi Everyone! Is there a test out there that can diagnose a definite Candida condition? Thanks in advance!

Re: Candida Diagnosis
Stool test will detect it coming from the gut. Vaginal yeast infections can stem from the gut as well. Candida antibody tests from Genova Labs. These tests are given by natropathic doctors. Regular MD's won't do these tests.

Re: Candida Diagnosis
Gibbyviola,

I've noticed that I will need to see a specialist for this because I haven't discussed potential testing with my family Dr., it's been difficult getting him to work with this.

Thanks!

Re: Candida Diagnosis
Well, if your lucky enough to find a specialist. Even the natropaths are not experts in this, but if you do your research, you can guide them, and they can order these tests.
You want Metametrix GI stool test. (it's the best test).
