Re: in depth candida analysis from Dr. Simoncini

This is absolutely depressing and scary.

15 years ago, I developped candida (it was diagnosed in France, where they test the stools sytematically for yeast infection); first time fight was with Ketonazole prescribed for one week. Three months later, it was back. Took three months to heal with garlic, diet, etc. 2000, serious gut inflammation, skin reaction to leaky gut and die-off, etc. Took a year to get over it.

Now candida was always lying low, and a couple years ago, due to going back to "normal" eating - fruits, bread, etc. combined with low immunity, it started creeping in again. Had constant lung problems. Had forgotten about candida.

This year, got acute bronchitis for several months, cortisone injections, extreme weakness during which "something" slowly spread throughout my body. Doctors and specialist were unable to identify whatever it is. Anyways they don't believe or can't figure out what am talking about.


But I now am 5 months in bed. Symptoms have changed and worsened, but right now, am too weak to function. Am on the candida diet for several months, and I eat only fish, vegetables; but now any food, even drinking herbal tea brings on a skin reaction - it used to be limited to legs, "colonies" here and there, now it is absolutely every single inch of my skin: whatever I swallow brings on this stinging in my whole skin, like pins from inside or sometimes like prickly dust, itchiness on the surface and in the deep layers of the skin!!! I have this even under the soles of my feet, my face, scalp, eyelids, hands, arms, every single inch. It just started with one location or two. It is so bizarre, so absolutely unpleasant and painful... No one has ever seen this.

I thought it must be candida toxins are leaking out from my digestive system and have invaded the skin. I thought am loaded with candida toxins; but candida itself is confined to my digestive tract.

Now am not so sure. Could it be spores have invaded the whole inside of my skin? But then IT IS TOO SCARY TO THINK THAT!!!
