I am new to this site but hoping to find some answers by posting on various boards out there to see if any one has has success in battling this affliction.
My history: I have been battling this yeast bug in my gut for over 2
years now. This is a reoccurring Candida episode as I had it bad about
6 years ago. I have been checked by traditional dr and after a ct scan, several blood tests, stool samples... given clean
bill of health but have terrible pain, nausea, bloating, gas
, ache all
over,brain fog, depression, fatigue...I could go on but all my
symptoms pointed to candida. A homopathic dr tested and said i have bacterial virus and candida...but the drops she gave me to clear it up did not work for me....
What I have done so far: Treatment at clinic in Mexico shots and
Nyastatin drugs. Homeopathic drs. Diet: no yeast foods, sugar,
fruit, vinegar, malt, dairy, low carbs, no red wine - boo hoo! or
dark chocolate - boo hoo! This makes me rather crabby as I watch my
family
bloating etc. My
next step is to get colonics believing the candida is dying off but
not coming out of the body... and I am now rotating my yeast cleansing
products ie oregano oil, caprilic. tea tree oil, syclivoir, candex
enzymes....probiotics
Any way if anyone has any suggestions as to what has really worked for
them I would be so greatful as I am in tears over this. I want to get
on with my life and be there for my family
as this candida problem can
really turn into an obsession when you cant get well and I am too
fatigued to do fun stuff with my daughter.
I have no time to read a detailed book and I have read up on the
basics diet etc but found lots of contradictions with the diet other
than the obvious.
Anyway any help would be appreciated

I found it was helpful to stop douching and to take acidobacillophus tablets. I also went to my Gyn. They can give you oral meds as well as vaginal suppositories. Boric acid suppositories might help.
