Guest guest Posted November 11, 1999 Report Share Posted November 11, 1999 Hi Fellow Groupies I went to the doctor yesterday and he suspects a stomach or esophogus ulcer. He did a rectal, ick, and found blood in my stools. So now I have to get that horrible test done with the scope thing. One down the mouth for the stomach and one up the rectum for the intestines. the only good thing about them is they say they will knock me out first. I kept asking him about candida but never got a response. He wants me to do a blood test for celiac disease. Sorry but I believe candida and parasites are the real problem. I am going to follow up with another doctor who sends patients to an acupuncturist and see if she knows anything about candida. I won't give up. When he did the rectal he took sample of my stools and put them on this cardboard thing, that is how he found the blood in the stools. He said it could be from the ulcer but wants to make sure. Question? Isn't this what they use to send to the lab to do candida tests? He has a horrible bed side manner and it was very late so he didn't answer all of my questions. I hate doctors who think they are gods. Sorry but just tired of them not listening. I will call the nurse tomorrow and see if I can get an answer out of her. He didn't even refill my prescription for the reglan but told me to keep taking it. The other med we talked about is prevacid which he said works great for ulcers, keeps the acid down and gets rid of the feeling like I am having a heart attack heart burn. This is so slow and when they don't talk and explain things it is so frustrating. I might try some parastie formula now that I can keep food down but will go very slow. The stomach is one problem but the candida and parasties are another. I belong to another onelist group for benzo's and several of us going off xanax, etc. developed not only candida but parasites. The ones doing the parasite cleanse say they never felt better. They also follow the candida diet and did the candida cleanse but the parasite cleanse is where they got the best results. I have to keep reminding myself to go slow becuase I usually jump in and tackle these problems with lots of energy but this time my body just can't handle it. Everytime I take anything for candida I get worse symptoms right off the bat. Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to write to me and offer me your support. Without it I would be much worse off. Let me know how everyone is doing and I will keep you posted also. Thanks again brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 11, 1999 Report Share Posted November 11, 1999 Edith The candida cleanse is just going on the candida diet and using natural products to kill off the candida. Sory but I call it this to make it short. brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 12, 1999 Report Share Posted November 12, 1999 Hi , How about trying water for the ulcer? When it hurts take a glass every 15 " This is recommended in the book Your Body's many cries for WATER. Aloe juice is also of benefit. ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2001 Report Share Posted March 21, 2001 here's a little list of 'candida types'... There is over 150 species, common one include : Candida albicans Candida dubliniensis Candida famata Candida glabrata Candida guilliermondii Candida humicola Candida krusei Candida lambica Candida lipolytica Candida lusitaniae Candida parapsilosis Candida pseudotropicalis Candida rugosa Candida stellatoidea Candida tropicalis Candida zeylanoides wendy doctor Hi everyone Well I had an exciting day today, but have to keep this brief as I feel exhausted. I went to see a guy who was recommended to me today about my candida. I felt between going yellow and not really knowing what I was doing with all my pills etc, I would go see him. He had this machine that tested you via frequencies for heaps of stuff, including candida. I tested positive for candida, but NOT candida albicans. It was another form of fungus. I was amazed at this, after reading one of the letters today on the list that said about another woman that found this as well. He wants me to stick to the diet of course, but I am not allowed to take other vitamins for awhile as they might interfere with the treatment. I don't think Molybdenum would be a worry, he mainly meant big doses of them. I cannot remember which one he said I had (candida) but he said he doesn't usually come across this one. I thought " , maybe that's why I have never been able to get rid of it! " . So I am feeling really positive, as he said he has a good success rate with candida. He wants to get the candida under control first, then work on the hormonal/allergies side of things. It will be interesting to see what happens. I am still cautious, but feeling like I am o.k. with what he is suggesting. Is anyone familiar with these frequency machines that send out a frequency to a homeopathic modulation? Hope I hear from someone who has tried this method, but as he explained, treatments work better on some people than others, and it may take a bit of time finding the right one. Hey, he doesn't cost a fortune so I am o.k. with that. I liked him because he was sensible and make sense. Some I have been to........we won't go there. Love to everyone p.s. Did you know there are 2 New Zelanders on the list now.... Send blank message to candidiasis-unsubscribeonelist if you want to UNSUBSCRIBE !

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2002 Report Share Posted January 4, 2002 LOL! Three pills? That's nothing compared to what I used to take trying to balance those blasted individual supplements! I know what you mean, though. I wouldn't want to take a drug every day for the rest of my life either, if there was another choice. Look into your other choices........you'll be very glad that you did.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 You got it Donna My daily intake is 6 pills minimum. That includes no supplements or vitamins. With those added in I range up to 12 pills daily. Then if I am experiencing muscle spasms, or joint inflamination, the count goes up again. And for migraines...And so on. I know the concept can be overwhelming, but it really isn't to bad even if it's 3 pills daily. Hang in there and it will get better. We all adapt. :-) Kate Donna wrote: LOL! Three pills?

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2003 Report Share Posted May 26, 2003 Donna-- See if you can track down Deb Grossett through TDMHMR. She's a psychologist and a BCBA and may be able to help with your situation. She's got many years of experience working with conditions that may be co-morbid with ASD. I thought I had her contact number. Let me check around and see what I can find. CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 DJ -- I don't know about the TX docs (besides that they're at Baylor), but the doc that I would recommend if you decide to go to Cleveland is Dr. Vaezi -- here's his info: http://www.clevelandclinic.org/staff/getstaff.asp?StaffId=3186 The hospital in Cleveland is " The Cleveland Clinic " -- it's kinda like the Mayo Clinic, only just not as well-known. They are the #2 rated hospital in the country for GI disorders, and they treat more achalasia per year than any other hospital in the USA, and probably more than any hospital in the entire world. It's actually an entire 'campus' of medical buildings... doctors' offices, specialty clinics, regular " hospital " buildings, diagnostics, etc. Many of the newest buildings have " skyways " connecting them, so you don't have to go outside and across streets to get from one building to another. They actually even have free shuttle buses that run a route all around the campus, so that if you need to see a doctor in his office in one building, then go have some tests done in another building, and then go see another doctor in yet another building, you only have to park your car once and they will tell you how to get from point A to point B. Everyone is very helpful, and they even have an " internal " shuttle bus for those who can't walk (like the " golf cart " trolleys they use in airports, etc.) They do tons of research at The Cleveland Clinic (TCC) and are very highly regarded in the medical community. I have no clue why they're not a household name like Mayo Clinic... they're less than 4 hours from me, and I had never heard of them until I joined this group a couple years ago!
