Thank you for help for friend's illness - her response

[Guest guest]

Thanks to so many of you for responding and trying to help my good friend

with her mysterious ailment. By the way, someone asked this - we live in

Boulder, CO.

Anyway, she wrote the following and then added later that now she's

realizing she could be dealing with reflux as a side effect of candida (which

someone mentioned, thank you).

which came back negative for bacteria (although i wonder if all the natural

meds i'm on could mask that???) Also we tested my thryoid which is fine. Oh

and months ago i had a complete blood panel done and everything was

" normal " ... there was no indication that my body is fighting an infection.

That

second ENT now wants to try reflux meds which I'm tentative to do because I

don't understand how antibiotics would make reflux go away and then come

back??? Also, i had my pee tested and had 1.4 ppb aflotoxin present and .245

tricothecene (Again I wonder if being on olive leaf for so long may have

lowered those numbers???)... and also that we had the house tested and

although i know it's not super reliable, Bob the mold guy seemed to think the

levels were okay especially since they were higher outside than inside. BUT i

went to see Dr. Pingree today (the 3rd ENT) and he thought some of the

levels were a little high. He put me on diflucan and some nasal sprays the

idea being that if i feel better within 3 to 4 days it indicates a fungal/mold

problem.

Anyhow... if you feel like forwarding this on go for it... ??? I'm so

confused at this point... oh and I've bought about 290 toothbrushes in the past

year... seriously... i change them at least every other day...

HI, go to this link and find a dietary treatment for acid reflux that

your friend could try, this is my family doctor's website, he is a smart

guy who thinks outside the box.

Jill, your friends acid reflux would go away w antibiotic if it is H Pylori, and

it might come back also. I have a friend w a serious problem w pylori, and he

says it is in everyone, can overrun-be killed off, and come back.
