Candida or Adrenal Fatigue or Sexual Exhaustion or All of the above.

June 7, 2010

Hello Bee and fellow members

My Name is Aidan and I am new here and I guess I would just like some guidence

as I'm not too sure if my case is unique and is all attributed to candida. I

have not been rigth for 10 years and I am only young.

I'm sure I do have candida as I have done the online test, spit test and over

the last 2 years have developed a white furry coating. Although as soon as

cutting out dairy this has reduced.

I feel like the candida symptoms have only come on in the last 2 years

I am 27 years old keep fit and always thought my diet was not bad (protein, low

gi foods, grains etc. Not much sugar)

For the past 7 years or more I have not been good, declining libido,

tiredness,muscle weaknes, stressed, regular sore throat/flu.

I am recieving treatment for my weak adrenals and mild hypo thyroid.

My morning cortisol and dhea were in lower 1/4. Testosterne is also not high for

my age its just average.

Taking

- 20mg cortisol

- 50mg DHEA troaches

Only change I have noticed with this is I can maybe cope with stress a little

better and my head doesnt get as tight

Below are my current symptoms

- Dark circles around eyes

- Often wakeup 2-3am and then fall back to sleep. Cannot sleep past 7am

- Wake up unrefreshed and drained through out the day

- General mood is down. No excitement or energy for life or to exceed in my job

- Muscle aches in legs, hips, back and shoulders

- Have absolutly no libido! I am 27 years old

- Brain Fog

If I do happen to have sex I feel very drained for the next few days with tight

muscles aches and foggy drained feeling

If I do have candida the only things that I think could have contributed was

alcohol binges on weekends and stress. It has been a few years since I have gone

out regulary and drank alcohol and partied.

If I dont eat low gi carbs, or sugar I end up feeling really low shortly

afterwards.

Over the last 2 weeks I have cut out all carbs and I have noticed it has reduced

my brain fog, however i still just get the drained feeling

Sorry for long post.

Thanks
