Advice I got from online doc, your thoughts (not new to candida)


Hey guys, I'm new to this board, but not new to candida. Was on the Candida Diet Forum til it kinda died out. I recently emailed with Dr. Kenneth Sutter, who used to have a forum and folks like on the Liver Flush Forum . I'm slightly alarmed at some suggestions he gave me, but first, my background:

Background:
* In early 30s, and I was Dx’ed with Addison’s Disease (Adrenal Insufficiency) at age 12. For my Addison’s, I must take hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone forever-- If I do not, I will die. When I miss doses, I start to feel sick.
* I never had any significant health problems until I was 27 and took an antibiotic. Worst decision of my LIFE.
* After I took the antibiotic, I started getting chronic yeast infections, to the point where I had a straight yeast infection for a year that wouldn’t budge. Other symptoms that I have had since my Antibiotics (though not usually all at once, have included): vaginal bacterial vaginosis (BV), ringworm, rashes on arms, white tongue in back, pressure in ears/blocked ears, and occasional bloating/gas problems – though did not have this problem recently in last year or 2.
· About a year after taking the Antibiotic (in 2011/2012), I said goodbye to modern medicine and embarked on a very strict candida diet along with supplements (i.e.: SF722, Oil of Oregano, Vitamins, Digestive Enzymes, Probiotics, etc). In my 3-4 year journey on the diet, I’ve also tried a slew of things including colonics, enemas (with various additions), acupuncture, support of a naturopath and taking lots of supplements, sauerkraut, etc.
* Recently DXed with hypothyroid and have been taking synthyroid since – about 8ish months ago.
* My situation has surely improved since the start, but I'm not there yet...no way. Prior to beginning Liver Flushes, my only remaining symptoms were occasional rectal yeast (ringworm) – maybe once a month that I could easily clear up, blocked ears from time to time (not every day like before), and still with the white tongue in back. No more vaginal problems.
* I decided to start Liver Flushing, as I had read good things, and I was tired of being on this restricted diet and not feeling like I was 100% myself again- with the tongue and occasional ringworm being my major indication. I thought the flushing might help push me over the edge.
* To date, I have done 2 Liver Flushes, following Andreas Moritz ’s protocol (I have his e-book) to the TEE with the Epsom Salts , Olive Oil/Citrus mix, etc. After both flushes, I got green circular blobs out – things I’ve not seen before, but couldn’t say with confidence are stones vs. a product of the drinks, etc. They are very soft and mushy when you examine then with your fingers.
* After my 2nd flush, I had major problems. Moritz says you must get a colonic to clean out any leftover stones, and 2 days after my colonic, I ate dinner and got really gassy in my gut. It was very uncomfortable. This progressed and got worse, where I was very bloated and gassy, and then I started getting nauseous after I ate, lost my appetite, saw undigested food in stool, and was feeling really miserable and depressed because of it all. Please note I did a series of 10 colonics a year ago w/ NO PROBLEMS (granted it didnt help either). Anyway, this wasn't from the colonic. I took a million things to try to fix it – more Epsom Salts , more Oxypowder , salt water and a coffee enemas, and later Castor Oil packs and Castor Oil internally. I really threw off my body and got very sick (Adrenal Crisis) from the dehydration that came from all the things I was doing to flush my bowel (with the Epsom Salts probably being the most offensive).
* I’ve been taking Castor Oil now for 1 week, and it’s a lot better, but it seems if I try to stop the Castor Oil, which I feel like I should at this point, that the gas problem returns. Or, if I eat something that’s harder to digest, I have a problem the gas. On the CO, I’ve had really funky/gross looking stool with black specks, it's lightier/stringier looking, and recently, has slimy stuff attached to stool (I guess mucus).
* It’s been 3 weeks now since my last LF, and the gas/bloat and digestion problems aren't fixed.

Doc Sutter recommended a few kinda interesting/yet some a bit off putting things. 1) he feels I should stop taking my addison's meds, which is kinda a red flag...I can't just stop taking them...when I forget, i feel horrible. I just think that's scary advice. 2) He recommended a CCWS (like Lufernuron) for candida, Turpentine (and said to research Dr Jennifer Daniels ) and mentioned I should take spirulina forever. He doesn't think the Liver Flushing is helpful for me at this time, which he might be right about. Still not sure how this is gonna fix the problems the flush caused, but wondered what you all thought of all of this.
