That's the one question I can't answer: My wife is a doctor, and cooperates

beautifully. The important thing should be to make the doctor understand that

the cost/benefit (risk/benefit) analysis is very clearly in favour of carrying

out such an experiment. All doctors should be aware that it's very hard to be

sure about the diagnosis of fungus infections. If suspicion is strong enough,

it's easier to try Nystatin, (which is harmless) than to wait stubbornly for an

absolutely certain diagnosis.

Have you tried the Great Plains Labs organic acids test ? This could be

something objective-looking to push in front of your doctor....
