Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Hi All, When does everybody stop treating for yeast? We have been treating my son for yeast for forever. The last few weeks, we have been giving him one dose of Nystatin and one dose of a natural antifungal during the day. We have rotated the natural antifungal (first OoO, then black walnut, then uva ursi and now garlic). Yesterday, he had a nice formed stool and sleep has been incredible for about a week now. We are still getting the red cheeks and hyper, but I'm wondering if that could be a result of actually having the yeast under control and so its more intolerance not die off. He also gets two CP probiotics (35 billion) each day and two culturelle each day. When is the right time to drop the anitifungals and rely on my probiotics! Thanks so much!

When he was at his worst, I treated for yeast all the time, with no breaks, for at least a year. If I stopped it came roaring back. We have been treating my > son for yeast for forever.

It might help to give more frequent doses if you can. >We have rotated the natural antifungal (first OoO, then > black walnut, then uva ursi and now garlic). According to Andy, make those rotations long, like months. He says shrtr rotations only strengthen the yeast against the antifungal. I did short rotations back when I was treating for yeast all the time, and I think it may have made things worse.

You'll have to make a guess, try it, and see what happens. Good luck! Nell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 -We treat according to symptoms. If I see that he is yeast free on the antifungals..we use GSE, then I will stop it and keep the probiotics going. When I see it reappear, back on the GSE. For my son though, we can tell quite quickly that the yeast is comming back. His behavior and eating habits change, and his tongue gets white. I have been constantly treating yeast since we began this mess in May. It finally went away about two weeks ago following a virus where he was unable to eat. It stayed away until we began a round. So we are treating again. I know with myself having yeast issues, I am always treating it. It never seems to stay gone for more than a few days. We are early into chelation though. Only like 14 rounds done. -- In , " shel4336 " <shel4336@...> wrote: > > Hi All, > > When does everybody stop treating for yeast? We have been treating my > son for yeast for forever.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 > When does everybody stop treating for yeast? When it is under control. During chelation, I stopped after about round 50, because that is when chelation no longer caused a yeast problem. During anti-virals, I stopped after about 2-1/2 years, because that is when antii-virals no longer caused a yeast problem. > are still getting the red cheeks and hyper, This can be phenol intolerance [several of the OTC anti-fungals you mentioned are high phenol]. Try giving them with No-Fenol enzyme, see if that helps. >>When is the right time > to drop the anitifungals and rely on my probiotics! Well, my son only did well on probiotics for a few months, then they caused bacteria overgrowth symptoms. However, if you give anti-fungals and they cause bad bacteria, that is a sign the yeast overgrowth is gone. Try reducing and/or removing the anti-fungals and see if things improve.
