Systemic fungal infection? Celiac disease?

I have had a number of symptoms which are strange but someone has recently pointed my attention to the possibilities of either Celiac Disease or Systemic Fungal Infection.

I was on antibiotics three times for three infections in Feb, afterwards I lost my appetite and struggled to eat properly.  Had a red throat with no pain but had a coated tongue (yellowy/white but not patchy) and it nowhere else in my mouth however my mouth would burn and itch.

Since then I have developed tachycardia, palpitations, my fingernails have gone bluish purple and I have lost the moons on my nais, my teeth have lost their enamel very quickly (over days) and my GP thinks my symptoms are psychological because i have suffered from severe anxiety alongside my symptoms, my symptoms started the anxiety.  I lost over a stone and a half within weeks, my muscles are sore and tired, I have had skin rashes, spots in front of my eyes, and lots of reflux and wind.  My hands go cold and painful also and I get coldness and pins and needles in my legs.

The only thing that I can think started it was Antibiotics causing candida but the GP said the coating on my tongue did not look like Candida.  He gave me Nystatin and I took it but then the Tachy started while I was on it.  It did not clear the coating on my tongue.  I have experienced pain after going to the bathroom, itching and pain along my bottom.

I am terrified that this has gone on too long, that they have been so busy trying to tell me it's all in my mind.  

I was healthy before all of this happened.

Can this be down to gluten or down to fungal infection.  I have had recurrent fungal infection on my feet including my toenails.  

I had a load of blood tests including blood count, bacterial cultures, serum levels, tests for thyroid etc... all came back normal.  I have also had ECG's and have been told i have sinus tachy.  I had a chest x ray a few days ago and was told everything looked fine.

If I had systemic fungal infection, would ANY of my levels be high or low?

ATTENTION ANYONE EXPERIENCE ITCHING:

You have parasites! Almost 95% of people have some sort of parasite. These parasites breed, and make hundreds to thousands of eggs per day! Sugars, natural or artificial, seem to feed the parasites, creating candida. If you have allergies or suffer from post-nasal drip  (like I do), and have the sensation of mucus or "something stuck in the back of your throat", these are parasites "coming down to feed" on the sugars, dairy, and other mucus-forming foods you consume.

Let me list the ailments I’ve noticed, just in my own health struggles, over the last 20+ years: dry, itchy scalp (NOT dandruff, but I NOW know they’re demodex mites), thinning hair (or bald spots), allergies, sinus issues (PND), “cluster” and migraine headaches, eye floaters, visual disturbances, acne, occasional lesions, occasional ringworm & small white spots that appear randomly over the body (caused by what I NOW know is a skin fungus), easy bruising, anemia, constant weight gain (even when not eating much), itchy skin (especially on the lower legs), abdominal pain/gas/boating/IBS symptoms, vaginal/rectal itching (especially at night), depression/mood swings/memory lapses, body odor/bad breath, and nail fungus.

Most of the time, these parasites are "stealing" the nutrients from your foods, to feed and protect themselves in your body, leading to issues like abdominal discomfort, IBS/Crohn's, Diabetes, Anemia, easy bruising, Cancer, and other ailments.

Unless you go to a holistic or naturopathic doctor, your stool samples, and other blood tests will MAGICALLY turn up "negative". WHY YOU ASK??? Because the medical profession NEEDS you to keep coming in for unnecessary tests and medications, TO KEEP YOU SICK! It's more profitable for the FDA and Big Pharma, to keep one believing that something is wrong with them (whether gastro issues, psych issues, or other more serious illnesses and diseases), than to CURE YOU of your issues!!

I have parasites. LOTS OF THEM! I have been to several doctors that just write off anything you say, but are quick to order medications and other unnecessary (expensive) tests that DON'T WORK! I'm also a nurse (for over 35 years), and don't take one's word as gospel, until AFTER I do my own research.

In my research, I found an interesting link between parasites, an overabundance of candida, and various health issues. I’m an avid gardener, love sushi, grew up eating pork products, have always had pets (that I kissed often, and allowed on my bed regularly), had pinworms as a child (that I THOUGHT had been treated), and as an Emergency Room nurse, tended not to eat the best diet (I’ll admit). Yep, I fit the bill for parasite infestation.
I decided (after the last physician treated me like I was ignorant) to order natural supplements (from Amazon) to rid myself of any parasites. BTW, don’t bother buying anything for a candida cleanse (like I did) because until you rid the body of parasites, the candida won’t be eliminated. This candida buildup creates the “perfect storm” for various diseases and illnesses, including cancers, diabetes, lupus, multiple sclerosis, IBS, Crohn’s disease, yeast infections, etc.

I ordered Dr. Clark's Super W Blend (which contains Wormwood, a POWERFUL anti-parasitic); Organic Cloves; and GREEN Black Walnut Hulls TINCTURE (Black Walnut Hulls capsules are fine, but the liquid GREEN Black walnut TINCTURE is far more effective. TRUST ME ON THIS).

I kid you not; by the second day, I passed worms. Clear, (sometimes white) stringy worms (pinworms) and tons of egg larvae, were in my stools. And, my stools were NORMAL stools; I wasn’t having diarrhea or constipation. Just an incredible urge to go to the bathroom! Sometimes, I went to the bathroom more than 4 times a day! The Super W Blend and Green Black walnut tincture kills the adult worms, and the Cloves kill any egg larvae.

I couldn't believe my eyes! But I was even more focused to get these things out of my body! I even brought in a stool sample that anyone, even those with slight intelligence, could glance at quickly, and KNOW something was wrong. But guess what?? The tests for Ova & Parasites, came back negative. WTF??

So I stopped going to doctors, because I now KNOW what the real deal is. If you want to rid yourself of these issues, you must be PROACTIVE in YOUR OWN HEALTHCARE!!

I will say that once you start this protocol, YOU MUST CONTINUE AT ALL COSTS! If you stop, the parasites regroup, and you experience even MORE issues!  I must tell you, however, that you’ll feel worse before you feel better. I went through the sensation of “things crawling all over my body”. These are the parasites knowing they’re under attack, dying, and releasing their toxins, which poison the blood and leads to intense night sweats, increased body odor/bad breath, and insomnia (especially between the hours of 2-3am). You may have also noticed these worms become MORE ACTIVE around the time of the full moon. For the sinus/PND issues, I also added Oil of Oregano capsules; take 1 capsule 3x/day. For immediate relief of that sensation of “something stuck in the back of my throat”, I break one of the capsules in my mouth, and allow the oil to slowly go down my throat. The oil burns, but it kills worms “coming down to feast”. NEVER swallow the mucus! Cough it up and spit it out! Swallowing the mucus (which contain worms & their larvae) goes to your intestines, to begin their lifecycle all over again!

Stay away from any sugars (even natural sugar), dairy, grains, white flour, white rice, white bread (they convert to sugar in the body, thus feeding the parasites), and any mucus-causing foods, as much as you possibly can. Buy Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth, and put 1 TBSP in water (or another drink) and have that once or twice per day. Be SURE to drink PLENTY of fluids afterwards, as DE tends to constipate you. The DE are tiny, microscopic fresh water diatoms, that under a microscope looks like Chex mix; their edges are sharp, and shred the parasite’s body, rendering them helpless (or killing them), so they can be easily flushed from the body with the other products mentioned earlier. The DE also has other benefits: can be used in a home-made toothpaste (to re-mineralize teeth); for pest control (in and outside of the home, so lose your pest control company fees ☺); can be mixed into pet’s food to kill parasites in their bodies, as well as rubbed into their coats to kill fleas and other parasites, amongst other benefits!

****FOR THE ITCHING: Tea Tree Oil body washes! I run a bath (with the water as hot as I can stand), put a few squirts of this into my water (along with Epsom salt, I find parasites cannot stand this!) and sit/soak for at least 20 minutes. NO MORE ITCHING (for that day at least). Change all bed linens and wash your clothes daily. Vacuum resting spaces DAILY. DO NOT KISS, or allow pets onto your bed. Be sure to treat EVERYONE in your household, as its more than likely, they’re infected too.

This is working for me. I hope and pray that this helps others.

I don't have time right now to go into alot of detail but to get checked for celiac.... the gastro. doc can do specific blood tests for it.  BUT,  unless you have a GOOD informed doc.,  do your own research before you go in and ask for the specific tests by name.  Write it down.  I went to have it done and they ran the tests and came back with some negatives and a couple of positives.  They said, "yup, you have celiac."  I didn't feel right with it so I came home and did my research off the celiac disease website and found that they didn't even run the SPECIFIC test!  I went back and told them to run that test and of course... they were put out because I was telling them what to do.  I just said, "you know... it's my body."  They ran the test and it came back negative.  They wanted me to do the scope thing but I said no because the blood tests were negative.

i have a candida infection and am on antifungals for several months .I ALSO HAVE VIRUS THAT WILL NOT GO AWAY BECAUSE OF IT.symptoms are upset stomach ,muscle twitching muscle pain ,joint pain,sinus problems, multiple infection.heart palpitations like skipping a beat and the list goes on and on.The doctor has even suggested i get a test for lymes disease because i work on dogs. Hoping i do not have that to that would just be horrible.Get a blood test done for candida before it gets an even stronger hold on you.I will say a prayer for you and hope you will do the same for me.GOD BLESS
