Well folks this is probably my last post. I really am amazed at how extremely dumb I’ve been. I have had extreme rectal itching for over two years. I feel like it has taken part of my life from me. I was totally convinced I had candida because I also have mild excema on my hands and have a history of heavy antibiotic use. So I have done the website’s candida diet now for close to a year and the forum’s diet for over three months without seeing any results. Stupid me I never even went to the doctor at all during that time. I had however been to several doctors who told me I had hemmrhoids, yeast, and parasites so I eventually decided to give up on doctors helping me find a cure for my problem.
It wasn’t until I decided to go see a doctor in hopes of getting a script for diflucan and nystatin that I found out just how wrong I’d been all along. You see, I asked my M.D. for a culture of my anal rash and found out I have a bad staph infection and will need antibiotics! I hung up with the doctor and immediately began sobbing because it was SUCH a relief to find such a simple answer to this misery I have been through.
The reason I stuck with the diet for so long was I really thought I was improving in small ways. Mainly I was just desperate for an answer. Needless to say I have been eating whatever I please now. I just cannot believe how stupid I was!!!
I write all this to share my story with you in case you are doubtful that you have Candida. Try to get everything else ruled out first! I even had a Metametrix stool analysis that came back +4 for yeast overgrowth. This was the main reason I pursued the diet. But now looking back I think maybe it was detecting the yeast in the huge amount of kefir I was drinking at the time!
Anyway, just wanted to share what has lead me to a cure for my problem! 🙂
God bless you all!
wow! so happy for you! I’m wondering if you had any die off while you were on the diet? Did you just do the diet for over a year and feel nothing?
