Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Dear Bee, First I wanted to thank you for this group and your website. I felt so lost and you gave me hope:) I am currently living in germany and working in holland, in a foreign country so getting good advice is priceless for me. I was diagnosed 6 months ago with vaginal candida albicans then glabrata. I made it worst by dieting on my own following linda 's advice, and not using the proper vitamins or antifungals to build up my immune system but antibiotics prescribed by my gynecologist. I then went back to eating normal food as I was travelling a lot and staying in hotels or at friend's. I realise now that a lot of the symptoms, fogginess, depression, aches, have been due to candida. Especially looking back at my old diet composed mainly of pasta and bread. I am now slowly letting go of bad foods,4 weeks so far, and the only thing left on your list to give up is almond and hasselnut paste, ordered the vitamins you recommended today and can't wait. However,I am lost concerning when I should start the vaginal treatment (garlic cloves and lactobacillus). Shall I start straight away regardless of the diet plans? or after I have been on the vitamins for a while to make sure my immune system is strong enough. Thank you again for your help. Have a wonderful day. Estelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
