Guest guest Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Flu-like symptoms - achy joints, fatigue, runny nose, cough, etc. It's miserable. Die-off symptoms are there because your body can't excrete the toxins that dead yeast cells give off, so you want to go slowly with antifungals and diet changes.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 For my son, the first time we got to the full dose of Nystatin, after only being on the half dose for 3 days, he had a horribly painful stomach ache. He was sobbing. We gave him a foot bath with epsom salts and then I had to lie down with him until he fell asleep. The really bad pain lasted over an hour. We could not get him to swallow Activated Charcoal back then (6 months ago) because he couldn't swallow yet. Then we went back to a half dose of Nystatin and took a full week to get back to the full dose. That time, his die off reaction was the worst tantrum we had ever seen. It was incredibly intense and went on for an hour or more. It may have been 2 hours. It was exhausting and frightening. We had to hold him down to get his feet in the foot bath of epsom salts and eventually he drank some Natural Calm magnesium. After about 20 minutes of being in the bath and getting the magnesium in, he settled down and we got him to go to bed. That was our experience with die off. It is extraordinary. I remember saying to my husband that we had " awakened a sleeping giant - the yeast. " When we switched for a while to Diflucan, we expected more of the same. But instead, he would get pains in weird places like his cheeks or his shoulder blades would hurt. And he got some headaches. Diflucan goes into the whole body, I believe, whereas Nystatin stays in the intestine. Incidentally, he is still on prescription anti-fungals (back on Nystatin) 6 months later and we still see yeast in his urine. So I don't think it's totally gone yet. Best of luck to you. in Illinois > > So I know what the yeast symptoms are what are the specific things to > look out for with yeast die off? > > Can everyone who has experience with this post what they have experienced? > > TIA! > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my house, we had no negative symptoms, we just improved. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 I never saw yeast die off from diet or supps or probiotics but I believe what you are saying. I only saw a little bit the first time we used Diflucan and then the changes to the positive were so dramatic I thought a new person had entered our household. Diflucan was actually a mellow transition into all good behaviors for us. What I didn't count on was doing the Intravenous Secretin and the real kick butt die off that happened from the increase of oxygenation to the whole body. My dau was off the charts ADHD for the first 2 weeks - out of control talking, hyper, crazy kid. The 2nd injection produced a little reaction but by the 3rd, no more die off and just great responses with cognition. I would guess that Diflucan has a harder time reaching into the lower bowel and thats why we had such reaction with the Secretin. Also Secretin may have killed bacteria as well as yeast.
