Yes that's a very good idea; maybe if it gets too bad I'll give Steve my spiritual mentor a ring and explain this to him. Now I know all the strangeness is due to the illness I'll be able to explain it. Well I knew a lot of it was the illness, like mood swings etc but not the compulsive behaviour.

Glad you've got your sister; she sounds very understanding.

I found this article very helpful in learning about antifungals:

There are also prescription antifungals like Nystatin and Difulcan. Nystatin is an old timey, tried and true antifungal that is very safe. Difulcan is high strength, and is used for very serious fungal and yeast infections. I've found both to be very helpful.

After spendng six months trying unsuccessully to totally rid myself of a candida infection with antifungals, however, I finally took action on the parasite front. I've read that parasites may cause candida to begin with, so in order to get rid of it, you have to get rid of the parasites. So, I took Humaworm, an anti parasite cleanse that also has excellent antifungals in it. The month I was on it was amazing because I watched myself get totally well. Either the antifungals in Humaworm were very effective against the strain of yeast that I had, or parasites were the cause of my candida, and once I got rid of them, I got well. Or maybe it was both. I've been well from candida for six months now. I'm also now taking another round of Humaworm since six months has passed since I first took it. (You're only supposed to take Humaworm two to three times a year.) I'm going to use Humaworm every six months from now on to make sure the parasites, fungus and yeast stay away.

By the way, probiotics is another area that is helpful to learn about. The theory is that when the fungus and yeast popultion is killed off by the antifungals, probiotics allow "good bacteria" to grow and take their place, thereby making it harder for the yeast and fungus to reestablish themselves. Here is an article from Prevention Magazine that lists some good probiotics:

Good luck!
