Re: Candida Help
Hey... I was prescribed flagyl and cipro after a trip to South America. Needless to say I was cleaned out. This was back in March......After I felt ok but developed some symptoms of Candida(I was oblivious to) I have had worsening symptoms ever since. I finally had a biopsy during an endoscopy which confirmed I had Candida. Given Diflucan script for 14 days...... did nothing I didn't get anywhere with any specific herbal remedies...I finally got fed up because I could feel things moving in my legs and would feel like I was going to pass out midway through my days. I'm a 30 year old fit male and have never had any health issues.
Come to three weeks ago.... pissed off and finally committed to face this head on.... My doc gave me Diflucan for 5 weeks starting at 400 mgs for first 5 days. and Nystatin for two. Didn't do anything for a week....
Dropped the pharmaceuticals after 6 days.
Probiotics (no dairy/kefir/yogurt)
Load up on Kombucha(I made my own but, GTs is most prominent low
Sugar natural brand)
Oregano Oil
Colloidal Silver (Lethal) start slow but it's a must if you can't get over the hurdle.
Milk Thistle
Tons of Garlic
No
Sugar at all......
I was skeptical of all the hype about this sort of diet being the fix.
Now I'm an advocate.
I'm 6'5'' 275lbs. So my doses were quite a bit higher. But, in all honesty I would recommend the combo above at your own pace to anybody. Test the waters and ramp up as you go.
Still hammering it out, trying to stay positive and strong. I'm getting there .. I can go run and work out again. My mind has cleared and I know things are getting better.
Good luck!!
