Hi all,
I would really appreciate your help. I have been trying to eliminate candida now for over 2 months. I have taken a variety of antibacterials: grape seed oil, coconut oil, garlic, oil of oregano, diatomaceous earth (have been cycling through them) as well as probiotics. I have not been perfect on the diet but only had a couple slip ups. I have also done one 2-week parasite cleanse and am in the middle of a second.
In the beginning my symptoms were very bad. I constantly felt the effects, and had so much anxiety (physical, leading to emotional) because of the die-off reaction, as well as being extremely tired, but also had trouble sleeping, etc...you get the picture. Anyway, now I am feeling a lot better, more relaxed & sleeping better and I really do think I am recovering. There is just one problem: I am extremely constipated. I do not understand how this is possible, because I eat a high-fiber diet and supplement with psyllium twice a day as well. I make an effort to drink a lot of liquids. What could this problem be? It is really affecting my quality of life, because I am constantly uncomfortable. I am also self-conscious, because I can not wear form fitting clothes or even zip my jeans due to the bloating in my lower abdomen. It feels like the whole area is very heavy and backed up.
I should mention that I do still have bowel movements--they just don't seem to be frequent enough (once every ~1.5-2 days) or emptying me out completely. If anyone could offer advice on remedies or what might be causing it, I would REALLY APPRECIATE IT. I am so tired of this and so uncomfortable all the time.
