candida again......

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
i've taken pills, douched things, used cremes cut otu yeast and sugar, and wheat and every alturnative way there is possible. and nothing works. i've had ultrascans to check if it's something else and it was clear. so what do i do now? i have to go back to the doctor about my moods becuase they ahven't changed much either, but this is ridiculous, 4 years with candida is not fun.

what do i do now?

and if it isn't this then what could it be, (i know i haven't got a STD or anything like that)?

    Have you been tested for chlamydia? I only ask because I read a while back about a case where a woman thought she had thrush, which wouldn`t clear up and it eventually turned out she had this.

    Fair enough. Have you actually had a swab taken to confirm it IS candida?

    If it's been going on for 4 years you are better of talking to your GP about this - we have a factsheet on thrush here...but you probably know this already..... Thrush
    Hope you manage to sort it out.
