Has anyone experienced this, in absence of a true UTI? > ==>Hello Barbara. Welcome to our group. I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I've had a rough week. I work full-time and also my daughter had a hysterectomy yesterday. That in addition to my website being suspended. My website is a very integral part of this group because it was set up so members could find articles much better than searching through the Files. There are about 500 articles and over 200 recipes that have collected over the 4 years since I started this group. Diflucan is very hard on the liver, so your doctor should have done liver function tests prior to perscribing them, and also do them every month to ensure your liver isn't damaged. Natural antifungals are so much more superior to drugs, since they do not do any damage nor have side effects, yet they are just as effective, if not more so than any drugs. Any and all drugs are toxic/poisonous to the body so they cause damage and suppress the immune system. When you have evidence of candida in the vaginal area it indicates you have candida overgrowth mainly in your intestines. Candida overgrowth only occurs when the immune system is depressed, and the only way to cure it is, not with drugs, but with proper nutrients. With proper nutrients, which is my diet and supplements, the immune system gets built up so it can become strong enough to " make " candida change back to the nice friendly organism it is supposed to be in the body. Candida cannot be cured by " trying to " kill it off. It doesn't work that way. I recommend you read my candida article so you understand what you are dealing with, and what you need to do to get healthy again. My main article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " is in our Group's Files (left hand menu) in the 2nd Folder. After you've read please get back to us with any questions and concerns. We are here to help you. We've all been in your situation at one time or another. I cured my candida over 20 years ago, but it took over 2 1/2 years. It takes 1 month of natural healing for every year you've been unwell. For most people nowadays that is since before birth.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Carey,Haven't seen you posting in a while! . . . Welcome back!Are you taking any extra Magnesium? . . . .You might try a good quality Calcium/Magnesium supplement.If it works, you should begin seeing results within 24 hours. . . Then you'll want to take it 3-4 times a day because it starts working in one hour, and lasts for about six hours.Magnesium deficiency can affect a number of body functions. Because of the way our foods are grown, it's virtually impossible to get as much as we need from diet. www.magnesiumresearchlab.com has some really good information. . . Be warned, it's a hard read .. . . but worth wading through it.Hugs,Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
