I've had insomnia for the last 16 years and fatigue for the last 24 years. I've recently cottoned on to the possible significance of a Candida infection. I had Glandular fever when I was 16 and have been tired ever since. I also had quite a few bouts of ringworm, chronic ear infections and skin rashes. For the last eight months I have been relatively (cane) Sugar free and also eliminated fruit from my diet for a month. I've been taking Pau D'Arco, then went onto a mixture called "Yeast stat", all the while taking a high dose of acidophilus daily. Recently I went on Nilstat to kick this thing's butt because I was told that this medication was for more powerful than herbal remedies.I've noticed significant improvements in bodily strength and on certain days I feel really good. The problem is that my sleep patterns are still erratic. My pattern is that I have no problem getting off to sleep but approx 4 to 5 hours later I wake and remain awake for hours. Also I'm very sensitive to temperature i.e too hot - too cold (the blankets and coverings on my bed some nights is a circus) My question is has Candida been identified as a major cause of sleep disruption?
