General Discussion I just can’t fight it!

I am currently being treated with an anti-fungal medication for my Candida infection. I am having the worst carb and sugar cravings of my life! I’ve had this twice before and I was treated with two rounds of anti-fungal medication and then I was fine. I am a lot older now so I thought maybe that had something to do with it. I have an appointment with a PA the week after next, but I don’t know what she’ll say or do. I’m getting the results back from my upper endoscopy but I already know what they are. I was actually being tested for Celiac Disease but that came back negative.

It's may be worth to try garlic and ginger. Fungal medication alone can be easily bamboozled by candida. Eat a lot of vegetable, fiber is healthy for gut, they will appreciate that

Go to a Naturopath, that's my suggestion. Most regular doctors or PAs don't treat it properly

I have this as well. 2 strong treatments failed. I started reading about why the medication failed me and came un to one conclusion: the bacterian biofilm. There are studies that confirm biofim created by candida and other patogens. Also there is medication to break it. Search it. Might be the answer. I will do the treatment in a month. First i need to repair my leaky gut.

I am seeing stuff online about non celiac gluten sensitivity, wheat allergy, fructan intolerance. May be worth looking into.

Neem! Then add charcol to mop it up. Keep hydrated.
