Hopefully you’ll remember me before I disappeared.
I wanted to share my story with you in an effort and reminder to explore every possible avenue.
So I had all the symptoms of Candida. Extreme fatigue, brain fog, bloating, just to name a few. Now I had explored every single medical avenue and was eventually told in mid 2011 that there was nothing wrong with me, everything was fine medically. So I decided to see a nutritionist as it must of been something to do with food right?
Well, turns out that nutritionist ripped me off, just said I had candida to take my money. I had them rechecked and there was no sign of a candida infection.
Turns out I had a severely inflamed small intestine all this time, it was only when I went to a private hospital they took the time to look at my whole digestive system with a colonoscopy , endoscopy and a pill cam. Bottom line is if I never went to another doctor I would still be trying to treat candida.
I wrote this post to say to everyone be careful, alot of doctors are useless, but my experience here is a nutritionist was just as bad. My symtoms mimicked that of candida and I’m just so thankful I wanted a second opinion.
For anyone in London (or nearby), i’ve got a unopened packet of Red Bob’s creamy buckwheat – I’m not going to use it so I’ll send it on to someone who I know will use it.
Cheers, Sam
