Hey guys, I need some advice cause i dont know what to do.
I have been suffering with generally feeling unwell for the past 4 years… pressure headache on my eyes and temples, spacey, dreamy feelings, tiredness, heavy head.. and 2 health shops did a test and said i was a candida overgrowth.. i did the diet for 2 months with no change so gave up..
Howver, I have been feeling really down recently.. im quite big and binge eat.. and went to see my DR. He said the symptoms are more likely to be stress related and that Candida is not the cause of this all.. the problems is I worry cause I have felt like this every day since I was 17 and it’s so bad how can it all be in my head??? It started about a year after a family member of mine died and i started binge eating and feeling bad.
I had blood tests and they are fine, just a slightly underactive thyroid. Should I be on the candida diet?? Im going well at Weight watchers but I dont think its goin to help and im scared to eat some stuff!

constipation, thin stool, candida?




I have constipation. Normally thin stools, I just feel that my bowels are not moving properly. The stool is always loose, so it’s not because I don’t eat enough fibre or vegetables.

I have also had a thyroid problem diagnosed, it was overactive.. the symptom for that would be the opposite ie diarrhoea, not constipation.. Anyway then it was underactive because of the medication, but it is supposed to be OK now.

I get cramps and bloating and it’s horrible.
My GP suggested that it could be candida.. Beforehand I had been told it’s IBS C.

Been on the candida diet now for 3 weeks almost, which is terrible as you can’t eat carbohydrates and I don’t think anyone can live on just vegetables and eggs and meat..

Anyway any suggestions whether I could find out for sure if it’s candida. Can candida cause slow transit time ie thin stools?

I just wish I was healthy again. My trouble started one and a half years ago, any suggestion from anyone?

My mom is 46 and diagnosed to have oral thrush.She also has hyper thyroid which has not been tested for about a year.She took medications for about a month and got about 70% reduced.Is it because of hyperthyroid that thrush is healing slowly?

My mother is 46,has hyper thyroid and has recently undergone a topical corticosteroid treatment.Since then she has had white patches on her tongue,white spots on the inside cheeks and a whitish deep pocket like area where the lower cheek meets the gum line around the lower jaw.When felt by the tongue an uneasiness is felt.The physician diagnosed them to be thrush.Are they actually thrush?Can thrush affect all these areas?Please advice.

She’s in excruciating pain every month in her abdomen, has ‘brain fog’, very bloated, hypothyroid *symptoms*, candida yeast overgrowth — she’s miserable, the doctors have been of no help, say there’s nothing wrong with her. Thyroid levels are all over the map, from one extreme to the other.

Alkaline diet didn’t help. At all. Almost went broke with the natural remedies. I refuse to give up. What can I do?
