Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 My husband is taking LDN and he isn't really seeing any difference. We did notice his scalp started flaking more about the time he started it. Then we noticed a small spot of eczema near the corner of one eye. I then started to suspect, about 3 weeks later, that maybe he was having a problem with yeast. He began taking s. boulardii at one capsule twice a day the first week, and is at two capsules twice a day with 1 capsule of acidophilus twice a day. At this point the eczema has spread to the corners of both eyes, both eyelids, and below the eyes, under his arms, on his bum ; ) , and the scalp flaking is still there. All this with feeling more fatigue again too. He did have a brief period of feeling more rested, but as it is winter in the NE of Scotland, we are lacking in sunshine at the moment! Someone in the group had a problem similar, but I can't remember who. My question is how long did it take to start improving, were you taking strong probiotics/s. boulardii? Did you find any cream/essential oil to help? Did you add/cut anything else out of your diet?Thanks!AmeliaHusband UC 9 years, SCD 19 monthsLDN 3 mg.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hi Amelia, I was the one who wrote about LDN making me fatigued. It turned out that I was taking too much (4mg). At 3mg, I have the same amount of fatigue I had pre-LDN. I'm still no different then when I started LDN. I eat 2 cups of SCD yogurt a day, and have begun a natural anti-fungal rotation. Last week I took garlic oil everyday, and this week I'm taking olive leaf extract everyday. Next week I might do grapefruit seed extract. I'm hesitant to try s. boulardii again, because my last trial (last summer) gave me an annoying/disturbing ammonia-like smell in my nose. I'm also hesitant to go super low-carb and cut out all of the foods that are supposed to be yeast triggers. I'd have a heck of a time getting enough calories a day, not to mention that it would probably send me into a depression (I can handle giving up all my favorite non-SCD foods, but don't know that I could handle giving up the remaining SCD foods I love). My eczema has been cleared up (with the exception of a quarter sized patch on one palm) for several months. Epsom salt baths always helped when it was worse though (when I started the diet, I broke out behind me knees really bad).

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Holly,As you can tell, I am really rotten at who said what, but I was told a story about yeast by a person on this (or the SCDUK) group. Her doctor told her that research was done on yeast that showed it could take two forms--something about a tail or a forked tail, something like that. Anyway, the point was they could easily identify the forms. One form was more benign than the other. When the yeast diet was followed -- i.e. cutting down/out fruit and honey, the yeast tended to morph into the nastier form and became more difficult to kill off. There, justification not to deny your little pleasures!AmeliaHusband UC 9 years, SCD 19 monthsLDN 3mgTo: BTVC-SCD Sent: Tue, February 2, 2010 5:02:02 AMSubject: Re: Fighting Possible Yeast Hi Amelia, I was the one who wrote about LDN making me fatigued.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Amelia- Sorry to hear about Sanjay. I hope he gets better. Has anything that you tried worked? I didn't visit the forum but was following up the mails for a month. Because I didn't want to think about my illness, and just deal with it everyday. I still have Prostatitis issues -- didn't take antibiotics. I had fungal infection, which went away for after taking antibiotics but its back again now. Its on my genitals again. I don't know how to deal with it. My colitis is under control, and I am able to eat more foods. Why do so many of us have yeast issues? Is it an inherent issue with the diet that needs to be addressed? And how? -Andy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her doctor told her that research was done on yeast that showed it could take two forms--something about a tail or a forked tail, something like that. Anyway, the point was they could easily identify the forms. One form was more benign than the other. When the yeast diet was followed -- i.e. cutting down/out fruit and honey, the yeast tended to morph into the nastier form and became more difficult to kill off. > > > > > > > > There, justification not to deny your little pleasures! > > > > > > > > Amelia > > > > Husband UC 9 years, SCD 19 months > > > > LDN 3mg > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hey Eileen, Did you get die off symptoms with nystatin? Tiredness, achiness, etc. > I'm technically double diagnosed - celiac and crohns - though my 3rd GI (the only one I slightly trust as he's open to SCD) said intestinal corrosion based on other docs results-didn't want to label me with crohns and I never really had crohns symptoms - just nausea - which is here as I speak - so sick of this!! guessing it's yeast related but ??? > also when he did his own scopes 9 months on SCD there was no corrosion for him to see, so we'll never know what he would have said - oh well > Eileen 2 years scd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
