Hi,

i'm 24 years old and I think I suffer from Candida Overgrowth or whatever you want to call it. It must have started in my childhood. At age of 2 I had hernia and while in the hospital personnel negligence lead to me catching pneumonia. I was heavily pumped with anti-biotics then and many times afterwards.

By my early teens I had chronic problems with my sinuses and had them drained around age of 14-15. Then around age of 19 I started having major fatigue and brain fog almost always. Then chest pain followed. I also have chronic sore throat, a lot of mucous even in the summer and white coating on the tongue - not very thick or very white, but it's always there.

Other complaints I have are lower back pain, muscle pain and weakness - even though I exercise almost daily - and joint pain.

I did not know what is causing any of this. Then last year when I was 23 I started having major problems with my digestion - i had either constipation or diarrhea and bloating. I started wondering what to do. I went to a doctor to get checked for parasites and bacteria - they found nothing and prescribed nothing then handed me the bill. I started reading and my symptoms lead me towards disbiosis. I read that wheat and cheese can cause that so I cut off all wheat and dairy. That seemed to stabilize things, but it was temporary and symptoms started coming back.

Then I realized that I had lost a lot of weight and I'm already skinny so I was worried and I started eating wheat and dairy again. Right around then a friend suggested probiotics, herbal cleansing and enzymes. I did that and it brought relief to some symptoms and I thought "well I guess I can eat wheat and dairy then". I also diminished the probiotics in case they could harm me with prolonged use.
Also my vision started diminishing and I started seeing floaters which I then remembered I had had throughout my childhood and teenage years.


That was a few months ago and recently my chest pain returned and indigestion worsened. I accidentally came across an article about candida and it now appears that it can be the answer to all my problems.

But how can I be sure???

Well I am so sick and tired of this that I got the recommended treatment by Renew Life. I got all 4

the candiGone - anti fungal and anti bacterial killer
the candizyme which is meant to help break down candida cells
the fiber
and the strongest probiotics they have - 50 billion in a pill

i started the treatment a week ago and I have been on the diet for 2 weeks. Some days I feel better, some days I feel worse. I think I noticed dead candida in my stool, but I don't know if that's what it was since I don't know what it's supposed to look like. I've been trying to find it online, but I cant find anything reliable.

Does anyone know if it's little black mushrooms about as big as a pinhead with a white stem??

Do you people think it's candida i'm struggling with or something else? What is the best diet and treatment? I'm also worried that it may have caused permanent damage as most places list diabetes and Rheumatoid Arthritis and fibro something as possible complications.

If anyone can help me with some questions I'll be very grateful.
THIS THING IS LIKE THE PLAGUE.
