These are all the typical symptoms of Lyme disease, although I hate using that term any more.
I prefer to call it 'boi-agent' disease.

Go to a lyme support web-site, and check it out. These symptoms are very fast becoming all too familiar. Shroom

Hi tasty,


I don't know if I have very much to say in terms of advice, but I am someone who has recently learned of the yeast syndrome and have also just started down the path to recovery.
I moved to Northern Europe a little over a month ago, and might be relocating to Southeastern Europe for a job if I can get my health back first. I had severe mold in my apartment in the US in the month before leaving. For years, I've always had a number of symptoms, which I couldn't figure out (low energy, brain fog, spaciness, taking a long time to recover from colds, panic attacks). I too enjoy a glass of wine (or beer, or two . . . ) maybe a bit too much. In January, I had unknowingly triggered a severe spreading of the black mold that was already in the carpet (as well as dust mites)when I cranked up the heat and humidity to battle a cold that I just couldn't get rid of, despite the fact that I was taking Antibiotics . My body responded horribly; I had severe asthma attacks, very intense brain fog (to where I could barely complete a sentence), and a host of other severe manifestations. It was so bad I stayed in a hotel for most of the rest of the month. I have since noticed allergic reactions (sometimes quite severe) to certain foods that I would eat, particularly anything with sulfites , and to a lesser extent other yeast-containing products (e.g. vinegar, bread, beer), as well as dairy, as well as to wine. I stopped drinking a week ago. I made an appointment next week for a colonic irrigation -- it will take 3 sessions, and the last session will include a meeting with a nutritionist. I will need to follow a no sugar/low carb diet (meaning no alcohol as well) for six months after the treatment. Dutch insurance pays for 70% of the cost. In the meanwhile, I decided to get started on my own with the cleansing process. I went to the health food store; they recommended eating coconut oil and taking Capricin. I started doing both a few days ago, and the die off was quite rough (may be partially due to my unwittingly exposing myself to sulfites in the chicken I ate as well). The left side of my head and body became inflamed, and have had ringing in my ears, sinus pressure, as well as dizzyness. Oh, and, my stool turned yellow and stringy with black flecks in it. Thinking I was having a stroke, I rushed to the hospital. The doctor told me I had asthma (it can't be a stroke since in the body, symptoms would be on the opposite side from the head); he told me that I had no trouble breathing in, but my lungs couldn't expell fast enough to keep up, as there is some sort of blockage in the lungs (which could be the mold). So, my lungs hyperventilate, insuffient oxygen goes to my head and body, and as a result, I get dizzy from the hypotension (low blood pressure). After seeing a number of doctors over the past 2 months who had disregarded me when I mentioned fungus as the root of my problem, it was good to at least have an ER doctor who said, yes, you do indeed have a physical problem, which may have resulted from the mold/fungus exposure. Emotionally, that was quite a relief. After I got home, I went online and did some further research, learning that the inflamation, yellow stool, and ringing in the ears were all symptoms of the die-off phenomenon. I spoke to a nutritionist a short while ago (the same one who will do my colonic). He said that its not necessary for me to take the Capricin at this point, because it will all be cleaned out next week, and my asthma symptoms will disapate as a result of the cleaning. Given that I was having severe reactions to certain foods, though, I wanted to get a head start; I'm thinking that if I take the Capracin, some of the mold/candidas from the other parts of my body will be already be swept into my bowel, ready for extraction. I guess I will see next week whether the colonic makes much of a difference in my symptoms.

Hi. I think you'll find all constructive criticism might be moot as different things work for everyone. However, I was trying to think of stuff you could do over there...can you get coconut oil? You could start cooking with it as often as possible--it's a natural antifungal and has other health benefits as well. Personally, I wouldn't do the diflucan. I would stick to the strict diet and the natural anti-fungals. I did diflucan and though I got better while on it, it always came back worse afterwards--if you do a search, I think you'll find others had the same experience. I think a good Bowel Cleanse is essential first--I did Colonix. It worked wonders. I've also done enemas throughout a couple of times a week. After I did Bowel Cleanse I have been doing Liver Cleanses ever 2-3 weeks. You can definitely do the liver cleanse there. Jhan, from this forum, recommends a kidney cleanse as well which I'm about to do. The thing is (at least this is my theory) there is a reason the yeast is there, i.e. your body is out of balance and you have to help it get back in balance in order to keep the yeast balanced. Cook w/lots of garlic and onions! I'm sorry I can't think of much more right now...it's bedtime! Good luck..and keep us posted.
