- Life losses got in my way this winter to do a strict Candida Protocol and now I have intermittent abdominal pain that is thought to be an ulcer but may have a muscular skeletal element as well.

I am again preparing a Candida Protocol with the goal to eradicate any Candida overgrowth, help heal hypothyroidism and heal leaky gut thought to be causing me food allergies .

One big complaint for me last Nov (one I'd suffered with for many years) was rashes. I had been dealing with painful rashes (dermatology defined as Seborrheic Dermatitis ) behind both ears, at my belly and sometimes on my upper chest. These rashes went away at once using remedies outlined in Seborrheic Dermatitis Cures by Bulldancer that I found out about from a post done on Curezone. She (I think she is a woman) does warn however that the root cause of ones rashes still needs to be addressed.

I am wondering if a Candida protocol can include the following for my ulcer remedy... 'Mastica' Mastic Gum by Allergy Research and Aloe 200x by Designs for Health and Mucosa Max by Ultra Life Inc. aka Synergistics 'Metabolic Typing' Line. Among other things I am also taking DGL and a Glutamine/Glucosamine powder, MSM for pain and Mega Flora by Mega Foods, CocoYo and Inner Eco for probiotics. Some of these have magnesium or vegetable stearate or other fillers I do not like but I used these products in 2010 when I 'cured' my ulcer symptoms (upper right quadrant pain) for 6 months along with doing Egoscue exercises and removing gluten and nightshades from my diet.
Another suggestion from one of my doctors I saw for my current pain was Zinlori 75 by Metagenics and I am taking that as well.

This is all a bit of a shot in the dark for me since before I had that upper right quadrant pain this time I have abdominal pain. Not at all sure but based on symptoms I believe both pains are duodenum ulcers. H. pylori was not detected on a blood test in 2010 but the March 2014 test H. pylori IgA Abs was flagged high at 9.7 putting it in the Equivocal range of 9.0 to 11.00.

In 2010 I also took two or three 14 day courses of treatment of Prilosec OTC which I did not want to take again, but might if I get convinced that it is ok to do for short times.

Something i took during that time caused a drawing feeling like a wound being healed on the inside- hoping to duplicate that same feeling again.

Both of these bouts of pain I had followed times of heavy stress and the use of antifungals Seagate Olive Leaf Extract and North American Herb & Spice, Oreganol Oil Of Oregano P73 and some other herbal products like Cold and Flu Shot from Dr. Schulze and Wellness Formula by Source Naturals.

It is the antifungal factor that I think is a key to understanding my pain and I think but am not sure it is related to Candida.

I am going to cross reference this to leaky gut and Candida Forum s as well.

I am reaching d-mannose that a lady told me she cured her candida using and fulvic acid which my Integrative MD recommends for restoring gut health and I am considering gene testing with Metabolic Typist/ Nutritional counselor, Michael McEvoy re possible MTHFR mutation. Methylation function is another story but may be related to all of my health concerns.

My Health issues:
Insulin resistance
Hypothyroidism
High Inflammation (C Reactive Protein runs 4.3+)
About 30- 40 lbs. overweight
food allergies (Gluten, nightshades, caffeine)
Possible Candida and H. pylori overgrowth
Ulcer like abdominal Pain
Dry skin, mouth and eyes
Vision worsening and cataracts beginning


Thank you all for any comments or insights that any of you might be able to share.
