i know Sugar cravings is intense with candida but wow i never thought id have dreams about candy and pop tarts and crispy toast with butter on top. ohh maaannn. im trying to distract myself by doing something but my mind keeps wandering over to the cookies and coco pebbles and even saltine crackers. been taking grapefruit seed extract and raw garlic and no sugars except stevia which is really nasty by the way. im hoping that will weaken the candida and then when my threelac comes in the mail it will blow it back to hell where it came from. im 20 years old, my career is modeling and my agent is getting pissy at me cuz we been to the hospital 8 times and no one can figure out what the hell is wrong with me. but all my signs and vaginal yeast infections are pointing to this overgrowth. my indigestion is horrible even though i dont eat much because my days are so busy. for the past 5 months ive gone to work about twice yea. not to happy with me right now. 6 months ago took a strong Antibiotic called doxycycline about 3 times for 2 weeks each time my infection came back but after the first completed course i noticed my stomach was digesting slower probably just a whack out in my intestinal flora then the 2nd time i got gastritis and the 3rd time i didnt even finish it my stomach was like a red fire ball. after the gastritis went away i got indigestion so bad i lived on maalox for months. im still trying to avoid it but sometimes i just cant. i guess im being punished. all i want to do is raise my son and actually not lose my job- any advice anyone? venting just feels good so im sorry for the long post. and these anxiety attacks are killing me. im not a man person but im really gettng ready to sue because i lost my life. i dont even party or drink i smok cigarettes though due to my stressful life but ive always been such a healthy person. aybe its because i had a kid i heard it weakens your immune system greatly. i exercise cant even do that anymore im so tired.
