Really Why do I have a bad sulfur/fecal smell coming out of my nose and mouth?

Foxro

I have been suffering from a foul fecal/sulfur smell coming out of my nose and mouth for about 1 and a 1/2 years now. It started with only being bad breath which began about 4 years ago, I'm currently 17. I have good oral hygiene, brush, floss, rinse. My dendist hasn't found any dental related issues besides a possible impacted tooth. The smell that comes out of my nose and mouth often fills up the entire room, sometimes just half of the room. I constantly hear people saying "what smells like ****?" or "who farted?" when they're near me. People have described the smell as "farts", to "****", to "feet and ***". I'm not sure what the actual definate smell is, or if the smell changes. The smell.I always smell ranges from a sulfur/fart smell, to a fecal odor, depending on where I am. One thing I noticed though is that I cant ever smell the odor when I'm in my own house, and my family members have never smelled it either. I haven't told any of my family members about my issue because I'm too embarrassed to discuss the problem. I haven't talked to a doctor or dentist about the problems for the same reason as states above. I have been researching all over the internet to see if I could find out whats wrong with me. At first I thought it could be tonsil stones, but I ruled that out because I dont have any of the symptoms that people with tonsil stones have. My current hypothesis is that my problems is a candida overgrowth, because I've seen people on the internet complain about similar issues that I have and have been cured by antifungal medications like ketoconazole and other azole medications, however I haven't been able to try any because you need to have those medicationa prescribed to you in the U.S. The reason I believe I have a candida overgrowth is because I have a white coated tongue, and I also have very foul smelling fecal matter that tends to smell very similar to the smell that comes out of my nose and mouth. I haven't tried a nasal flush yet. I have started taking CandidaFX and Deep Immune to see if I can kill off the potential candida. I started my first tablets yesterday, though in school it felt like the smell got worse. Not sure if that's a die-off side effect it not, but I will continue taking for the rest of the week. One hypothesis as to how I got my candida overgrowth is from taking antibiotics for strep throat when I was like 8, 9, 10, or 11 ( I forgot the exact age because it was so long ago). I read that antibiotics can wipe out your gut flora, the good and bad, and lead to an overgrowth of candida. I'm not sure if I have esophegus candida or sinus candida. This problems has really taken a toll on my mental health. Having to see and hear people react to my smell everyday, especially when I cant help it. I have gotten really depressed, and dont talk to anyone anymore, not even my teachers, because I have seen them react to my odor as well. It has even gotten to point that I have been skipping school, just so I dont have to deal with others making remarks about me smelling. My senior year has pretty much been ruined and unenjoyable because of my problem. The only social interactions I really have with people are on veterans, which is pathetic. I plan on attending college this fall, but I'm afraid that my experience in college will be ruined as well.
