So, my bloods came back normal. Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing yet as I have been referred to a specialist (gastro) and within the next week I am having a full neck & torso CT, endiscope and various other tests.
My GP was sure it may be a hiatal hernia but since seeing the specialist he is considering a peptic ulcar/h-pylori infection.
Still have aches and pains but now its primarily around the stomach area. Always having a fullness or discomfort. I don't get heartburn because I have been taking omeprazole for around 6 months.
Not as fatigued as I was however still not 100%.
Here are SOME candida symptoms-there are more and MINE were also simiiar symptoms from food allergies
Here are 10 common candida symptoms

I started with muscle aches (knees) migraines, neck pain and severe gastrointestinal bloating etc and I was tested and was positive for a wheat and gluten allergy. I was always healthy. I had the ELISA panel, the skin test was negative. I developed intestinal candida overgrowth from it and that has multiple symptoms. I stopped wheat and gluten and was on a course of treatment I felt so much better.
No, not yet anyway. I just feel weak, lathergic and full of these pains. I should note I'm 26, male, healthy etc so this is not normal for me.
Have you been tested for food allergies? Particularly wheat or gluten? Skin tests do not always show results, but ELISA panels do.
