Yes, I don't think all the postive thinking in the world is enough when you have candida ( although it can't hurt :-). It takes a LOT of work, work, work! I'm finally coming out on the other side, thank God :-).
I won't see a doctor now. I only go once in a while for my pap screenings and I rarely do that anymore. Maybe that's not the best policy, but I prefer to do my very best to care for myself so I won't get sick in the first place. As I get older I probably should have the recommended screenings but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. Doctors really ruined my health 15 years ago by overprescribing meds so I've lost interest in that kind of medicine, as you can imagine.
