Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I was wondering how long other people have been using nystatin or difulucan. My son's yeast test came back and it said he had many forms of yeast. His doctor put him on nystatin 6 months ago and then added diflucan 3 months ago.I have been using natural antifungals in rotation as well. I talked to his doctor in a follow up consultation and told him that after we started each he had an intitial die off for a couple of days and then nothing after that.My son has improved all around including eating better.Now originally his doctor had told me that he would be on antifungals for 1-2 years since his infection was so bad,but after the consult he said to discontinue both antifungals.His feeling is if you don't see anything new good or bad then its time to stop.I suggested another antifungal but he said no.Now I am concerned because he hasn't been tested to see if the infection is gone and they had said he had so many strains of yeast that it would take various things and a long time to get rid of it. Is it possible to get rid of yeast this fast? He is also doing chelation which I know can stir up yeast so I plan on keeping him on the natural antifungals but I am wondering if I should push to keep him on the others.Has anyone done it for only 6 months and if so did the yeast come back after you stopped?
