To Judy

[Guest guest]

I've been reading you all talk and I think I

probably have you all beat as far as pets are

concerned. I have 15 adult poodles and 8 babies

6 weeks old. Yes I raise them but they love me a

lot too. I can tell when I am not feeling well

even before I know it because all the dogs want

to get into My lap at the same time. Ha.

Hi Edajane,

where in Montana did you grow up? My hometown is Spokane, Washington. Nothing beats the country of the PNW. I'll take a poodle too. I bet they are adorable.

Take Care,

Judy,

Thanks for telling me about your biopsy, it just helps knowing real people who have gone through it. I went out today and got a book called Hepatitis C - A Survivor's Guide. I've read 60 pages already (no wonder I needed a nap tonight!) - it's the right book for someone like me who's just starting out with a firm diagnosis. I just get really honked off some times that I have been having symptoms for almost 15 years and no doctor even looked into it, and I worry about how much damage was done in the mean time.

And you made my day with "For You" - I send it right back to you, dear!

Marilyn

RE: To everyone/ marilyn

I had my liver biopsy in March or April, can't remember which and I was real scared too but they gave me medicene in my veins and it wasn't bad at all....now this is coming from a coward...good luck...judy

Hi - Until Bee weighs in, I can try to answer a couple of questions (but not

all!!)

Soaking buckwheat - if I am making buckwheat pancakes, I mix the water and

buckwheat and leave in the fridge overnight. Dunno about the quinoa but

probably the same.

As for method of cooking - I make pancakes and fry in butter (coconut oil is

a better choice but right now, I am not using it because I have a lot of

other things to introduce into my diet first and I am going very sloooow.

Otherwise, big time die-off)

Yogurt - I don't THINK I have a problem with yogurt feding the candida.

Hard to tell. I know I love it and homemade stuff is supposed to be full of

beneficial bacteria (probiotics). I make mine with half and half because

apparently (Bee will probably explain it better) there is less something -

lactose (?) sugar (?) in it than milk. I do know that the higher the fat

content of the milk or cream you are using, the better. Anyway, I prefer

the half and half because the resultant yogurt is very creamy. (Reminds me

of that creamy, sinful, Dannon stuff that I used to eat.)

Does it get easier to stick to the plan with time? I would say definitely,

a resounding YES! For one thing, while you are still ingesting carbs, you

are probably hungry all the time. I know that until I started Bee's

protocol I was ALWAYS eating something - I THOUGHT I was starving the yeast

beasts but apparently not. (But at that time I still ate things like

carrots and oatmeal and sprouted bread and unsoaked nuts and potatoes - not

knowing they feed candida). As a result I was constantly in the kitchen

looking for a snack. In fact, this has been my pattern for as long as I can

remember - constantly snacking. But believe it or not, since starting Bee's

diet, I can actually go for a number of hours without thinking about food.

(BTW, did you know that Candida has a brain - if you cheat and have, say a

cookie - it will nag and nag and nag until you have finally eaten the whole

gosh darn bag!! lol). In fact, that's usually my clue that something isn't

good for me. I can't leave it alone.

Speaking of being alone - glad you logged on. You won't be alone anymore.

I don't know what I would have done without the Candidiasis group - and now

this one too. I have learned so much, come so far with keeping the worst

candida symptoms at bay and I know you will too.

Cheers - p

..

Does it get easier with time to stick with the food plan? I feel tired

and as if I need more carbs of some sort for energy.... In any case, I am

willing to do ANYTHING to recover, so please don't interpret anything I say

as " complaining " , I just need to understand exactly WHY we eat the way we

do. A lot of it is self-explanatory and I have also found many answers in

the files, but the above questions represent what I have been unable to dig

up so far.

Thank you all SO much for any help you are willing to give me, I really

appreciate that you and the group are here! I have been alone with this for

over 40 years.

Hugs, Judy

[ ] Introduction to Candida Support Group by Bee

Dear Kristan,

Maybe you have not had the opportunity of reading the Home Page or

Introduction to this group. Here it is for your benefit.

" Welcome to our friendly helpful Candida Support Group. This is a

forum for people who are struggling to overcome the effects of yeast

overgrowth caused by Candida Albicans, and for those who want to

confirm whether they have Candida. This forum is based on Bee's 20

years of study and experience resulting in a Candida Program that

harnesses the body's marvellous healing powers by giving it with what

it needs to do its job â? " healing the body. The main focus is on

nutrition, particularly nutrient-dense healthy foods, taking into

account the laws of nature and the basic functions of the body.

***This group is not like other discussion groups where members can

become confused by so many different ideas, methods and protocols put

forth by other members because it is based on the candida program

contained in Bee's main article " How to Successfully Overcome

Candida " (main Menu or Files on the left of the Home Page).*** If you

are sincere about getting well and are willing to learn sound basic

nutrition facts and information, not based on food fads, diets or

false information, this is the group for you.

Everyone is welcome. As soon as you join you will need to read Bee's

article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " (in the " Files on the

left). ***At that point you will be in a position to enter into

discussions and ask appropriate questions. If you disagree with the

basis of this group you are free to unsubscribe.***

The goal of this group is to assist and support you in overcoming

Candida through nutrition, and towards maintaining life-long health.

We are here to help you, and we welcome your support and help.

The best in health,

Bee

Morning Judy:

I can't address the amphotericin (never heard of that treatment actually in

my many months on the board - but then of course, we do the " holistic "

approach here). But as to the question of does the candida ALL go - the

short answer is " no " .

Apparently from a very young age, we have a certain amount of candida in our

gut and it is beneficial, yada, yada. It's when the good bacteria are

killed off from antibiotic use or what have you, that candida can

proliferate.

A lot of people who have gotten their candida down to manageable numbers can

start adding " illegal " foods back into their diet, but for the most part,

you can't really go back to the old way of eating for long or you are back

in trouble again. But anyway, this is not the end of the world - after

doing one form or another of the candida diet for months and months, and

after reading so much about nutrition, I wouldn't WANT to go back to the old

way of eating. I'll leave the cheesecake (when I get that far), for special

occasions only.

However, I am counting the days until I can have some potatoes!!!

Cheers

[Guest guest]

Dear Judy,

I've posted these pain tips several times, and as long as no one minds

reading them again, hopefully they might help you and your husband. My

family was really helped and I posted them on the refrigerator where

everyone would see them. I hope they help because it is hard for other

family members to understand what it is like to deal with pain on a constant

basis. Take care, Fran

Tips for Dealing With People in Pain

1. People with chronic pain seem unreliable (we can't count on ourselves).

When feeling better we promise things (and mean it); when in serious pain,

we may not even show up. Pain people need the " rubber time " (flexible) found

in South Pacific countries and many aboriginal cultures.

2. An action or situation may result in pain several hours later, or even

the next day. Delayed pain is confusing to people who have never experienced

it.

3. Pain can inhibit listening and other communication skills. It's like

having someone shouting at you, or trying to talk with a fire alarm going

off in the room. The effect of pain on the mind can seem like attention

deficit disorder. So you may have to repeat a request, or write things down

for a person with chronic pain. Don't take it personally, or think that they

are stupid.

4. The senses can overload while in pain. For example, noises that wouldn't

normally bother you may seem too loud or glaring.

5. Patience may seem short. We can't wait in a long line; can't wait for a

long, drawn out conversation.

6. Don't always ask " How are you? " unless you are genuinely prepared to

listen - it just points attention inward.

7. Pain can sometimes trigger psychological disabilities (usually very

temporary). When in pain, a small task, like hanging out the laundry, can

seem like a huge wall, too high to climb over. An hour later the same job

may be quite okay. It is sane to be depressed occasionally when you hurt.

8. Pain can come on fairly quickly and unexpectedly. Pain sometimes abates

after a short rest. Chronic pain people appear to arrive and fade

unpredictably to others.

9. Knowing where a refuge is, such as a couch, a bed, or a comfortable

chair, is as important as knowing where a bathroom is. A visit is much more

enjoyable if the chronic pain person knows there is a refuge if needed. A

person with chronic pain may not want to go somewhere that has no refuge

(e.g. no place to sit or lie down).

10. Small acts of kindness can seem like huge acts of mercy to a person in

pain. Your offer of a pillow or a cup of tea can be a really big thing to a

person who is feeling temporarily helpless in the face of encroaching pain.

11. Not all pain is easy to locate or describe. Sometimes there is a

body-wide feeling of discomfort, with hard to describe pains in the entire

back, or in both legs, but not in one particular spot you can point to. Our

vocabulary for pain is very limited, compared to the body's ability to feel

varieties of discomfort.

12. We may not have a good " reason " for the pain. Medical science is still

limited in its understanding of pain. Many people have pain that is not yet

classified by doctors as an officially recognized " disease " . That does not

reduce the pain; it only reduces our ability to give it a label, and to have

you believe us.

?

Janet,

Thank you so much for the helpful advice. I do like a few games on the

computer. especially like slingo and spider solitare. I want to do so much

but

seem to be drained all the time. I just don't feel up to cleaning, cooking

etc.

and it makes me fee useless at times. I just have to believe that things

WILL

GET BETTE. i used to have such nice skin. If it goes to my scalp and face I

dont know what I will do. I guess I will cross that bridge when I come to

it.

I didn't sleep at all through last from itching. I was too tired or lazy

one to get to the shower and use the soap for my skin and them go through

the

ritual of putting on all the topical stuff. I find that Sarna cream is the

best itching medicine and of course I ran out last night.

I got some of that new bath oil gel and put it on while my body was still

wet.

I cannot believe how bad the p has gotten the last few months. I would say

it has tripled. I'm still waiting on the darn blood work from the liver

specialist, had the ultra sound yesterday and will have the liver biopsy and

will

then finally be able to start something like enbrel.

How are you doing? Sorry I'm whining. I just need an ear to hear me that

understands. arthritis is better since I got back on my regular dosage of

celebrex. It is amazing what that stuff does. I just don't understand why

my

skin is so terrible. I have been doing some reading and I " m not doing all

I

could be doing so will try to get to the sun tan booth to get some light

and

keep myself really moisturized really good.

My mother had p. It started up in her 40's and she used to have to go to

Nashville to get treatments.. light treatments. Hers was terrible, face,

scalp,

ears, neck. She looked like an indian. I cann't help ut belive that she get

it from stress.. There we a lot of stressful things going on at that time

in

her life.

So I was predisposed and more likely to get it. My oldest daugher age 35

has

had it most of her life but only mild.

Well,

I will close. Thanks again for writing. and for me the invite for me to

write you. Maybe sometime we can talk on the phone.

Here's hoping you have a painless day.
