Hi, I'm new here--so glad to have found y'all!

May 28, 2000

Although I'm new here, I am NOT new to the world of yeast

infections. I am 28 years old and have been getting them every few

months for the past 10 years. Recently I have developed an extremely

itchy scalp, and nothing seems to help. There is no dandruff, my

scalp just itches like crazy. I started doing some internet research

& realized that it may be linked to my tendency to develop yeast

infections--I DID just recently stop taking anti-biotics, and I

currently seem to be developing a vaginal yeast infection as well (I

know y'all really want to know that, right?).

I would like to know more about candidiasis (I had no idea it was

such a big problem), and what to do to stop it. I gather that I will

have to eliminate some things from my diet, but so far it looks like

if I have to eliminate sugar, flour, wheat & dairy products, the only

thing I can eat is vegetables and pork! LOL Hopefully that's not

true.

Anyway, I am glad this group is here. I fully intend to soak up all

the knowledge that you all have gathered.
