Candida
This is my 5 year suffering with what started as burning peeling lips and has developed into several other conditions such as: Lost of hair,burning esophagus which affects my speech to the point where my voice gets hoarse,especially at night. My lungs hurt all day long and I have developed allergies to almost everything. As soon as I eat red apples or any kind of spice among other foods I start itching all over.My thyroid gland is messed up.
I gone the Doctors/specialist/testing route to no avail.
Been told like everyone else that candida/yeast does not cause any of the condition I have mention/to telling me that I am stressed out and it's all upstairs.
I have gone the almost carb free diet to include nothing made of white floor or pasta, potatoes,ect.
No alcohol or carbonated drinks.
I eat a lot of fresh veggies and organic when I can.
Supplements, I use them all for extended periods.
Because of the diet,I have lost 45 lbs, down to 127lbs.
when cooking I use olive oil, the best. No micro wave and only use cast iron or stainless steel cook ware.
Antifugals both precription and natutal. What I have notice is that they seem to work for 2-3 days then the fungal demons seem to become immune to them.
Asked an M.D. one time if it could be system fugus of some kind, maybe candida, and he answered that if I had it in the systemic form, I would be in the hospital or worse.
I would like to memtion that I have a history of using long term
Antibiotics for a recuring prostate infection that stayed with me for many years. And I think that when I got a cronic sinus infection that went on for about 4 months and more
Antibiotics , it was the last straw and did my immune system in. I had surgery and lost my sense of smell. To this day It has to be very strong for me to smell.
Needless to say,life is no fun for me anymore. I numbed my lips with oregano oil full strength so I can enjoy my meals. I have not given up,yet,but I am growing weary of not enjoying time with family or friends.People that are going through what I am, know what it's like to say no to the holiday meals and especially sweets.
I still believe there is an answer us out there and hopefully we can rid ourself of this unknown to the medical community disease/condition.
Sorry for the long tread.
