  Hello Maff As you suggested, I am posting here rather than at the end of your 'My Candida Hell' article. I hope your holiday in Turkey was good. Since our last spate of messages things have moved on a fair bit. On your advice, I tried Sarah Myhill, who wasn't taking on any new patients but...

  Hey guys, Thanks for the PTRC protocol - it looks really useful. One thing that I didn't quite get: are you meant to do a colonic lavage before each infusion or just the first one? Thanks for the link Idkwia - it looks like a less icky way to do the infusion though surely it can't be as good as...

  Hi Maff and Everyone. My name is Maryam and I came across your site today. I was reading one of your older posts about Candida and that you had such a hard time with it. I have also had a long journey with Candida and for a long time I didn't know it was behind my problems. I've recently...

  Hi Maryam, Thanks for sharing your experiences in your original insightful post. I know for a fact many members and visitors to the site will identify with what you are going through. I think part of the reason for lack of responses is that preventing fungal infections and Candida-related illness...

  Hi Matthew / Maff, I have just joined this forum and read your post on your nightmare with Candida. I think I am in exactly the same position as you were at least (I hope things are better since then as that article was a few years ago?) Born by caesarian, not breast fed at all, multiple...

  You're welcome Carolyn, we have to stick together and share information and experiences in order to make any headway with these things!

  I am much more shocked than I thought I will be, the results of Metametrix test are completely different than CDSA, I was expecting to be different as before the test I've been fasting almost a week and cleared the bowels and then ate only bananas with honey for the test. Well, its totally...

  No I haven't , I asked around and had mixed opinions as to whether that product would have any effect or not, then had big issues with dentistry and needed to experiment with alternatives to antibiotics (which I can't tolerate) which has taken priority for now. I've also been told you have to...

- Last reply by Maff 5 months 6 days ago
  
  I think the digestive symptoms are to be expected Wendy...considering the specifics of what you're doing. Likewise the tiredness. I found it pretty stressful doing FMT every day for 10 days! Is joint pain something you get frequently anyway? Either way it sounds like a bit of a worry. If it were...

  Yes I will. I've had serious reactions to every antifungal I've tried so far: Diflucan, Capryllic Acid, Oregano oil. I was hoping this was a better option since possibly the terrible reactions were simply die-off and this seemed to hold out hope that there was less of the die-off. I will ask...
