Re: Candida Support Group

[Guest guest]

Jackie,

The group I joined is on (same website that is under), and there are lots and lots of letters submitted every day. I have had trouble keeping up with my e-mail lately because of all the letters on the Candida group. Actually, I joined two of them. One is CandidaAlbicans and the other is called Candidiasis. There is alot of chit chat on there back and forth, but once in awhile, there are a few good gems in there with some very valuable info on what is helping them to feel better.

One thing I have come to understand is that this whole candida issue is as complex as the breast implant one!

I also got a letter from Dr. Kolb, and she stated this:

Adjuvant disease causes a defect in the immune system that makes one susceptible to Candidiasis. Out of 3000 women with silicone problems, 3000 tested positive for yeast.

So, there you have it. We may all be suffering from candida troubles instigated by the implants and their effect on the immune system. I have never FULLY addressed the candida problem in my own life, because it never appeared to be the issue. I do not suffer from vaginal yeast infections or thrush.

But, I do have almost all of the symptoms that those on the candida lists are talking about.

So, Jackie, your expertise via personal experience is welcome on this candida issue!

I will be doing more research on it, and asking more questions from those who know how to deal with it.

, didn't you have a friend who didn't have implants who was also suffering from this spacey head thing? Did she ever find out what was causing it, or did she ever get rid of it?

I have seen alot of complaints from others on the candida list about the brain fog, and how persistent it is.
