Re: new mom with candida question

[Guest guest]

Krys,

My son was the only of my 3 to develop thrush and he had many, many yeast

infections in the diaper area as well. We also used the Nystatin to treat him.

At the time we didn't use any supplements, so I can't help you there. We had to

use the prescription cream for the butt rash, that was the only thing that took

care of it. He also had some food sensitivities, but no " allergies " . I always

brought up the rash he got on his face after eating certain foods, but nothing

ever came of it (maybe I didn't push the dr hard enough?) We just stopped the

foods and reintroduced them later. I never connected the yeast infection to his

speech - is there a relation?

Just went to see the DAN! doc yesterday and she wants DD to start on Diflucan

for yeast to improve her speech, so it must be related.

23m.daughter has pretty bad allergies which probably contributed to her late

speech. We stared therapy with SLP , supplements Nordic naturals PRO-EFA and

Vita E, as well as probiotics. How ever she develop candida ( thrash) in her

mouth, and I suspects is in her intestine as well. The Dr. prescribe Nystatin (

oral) for 5 days. Here is my question - should I stop all her supplements for

those 5 days, to sort of starve the yeast?

Thanks Nikunj, I sing for the group right away.

As for the yeast connection with speech? long story. When I read the famous

article ( thank you all, excellent resource) every thing made sense to me. I've

been researching this speech subject for a while now.

Mikayla from the beginning was a colicy baby, but doc. of course wouldn't

listen. I put her myself on Nutramigen ( highly hydrolyzed formula), which

brought immediate results. How ever around 6m. we went back to regular.She

seemed to be ok ( I was wrong). Her behavior escalated, diapers were always full

to the top, she started hit her head on the floor, scratch till bleeding, pull

hair. When she was 10 w. old she end up in emerge. room with sever reaction to

something?! Now one seemed to care why. She supposedly was to young to test.

When she was 13-14m. we tried to give her eggs and she broke in hives.All this

time she was also extremely congested, starting to breath thru mouth, holding

breath.Long story short this time I demented further testing. She is severely

allergic to peanut, milk, eggs and wheat! In all this craze we didn't realize

that she also stop growing ( drop 2 percentile line on chart) and of course her

speech is delayed, but my doc. thinks that is still time. I took her privately

to SPL and she suspects apraxia.

This whole thing pushed me to look for more clues. Leaky gut syndrome,

malabsorption, yeast,allergies, omega3 acids, autism and apraxia are all very

closely correlated with each other.

For the past3 months Mikayla is on wheat, milk,eggs and nut free diet.Her

behavior improved 80%, congestion is gone, speech is improving. We closely

monitor her protein and fat intake ( never enough) and waiting to see

pediatrician which I don't have high hopes for. It is extremely hard to find a

good doc.,whom actually is taking new patient. And since we live in Ontario,

Canada, waiting times for every thing are extraordinary.

Sorry, for a long post, I wanted to introduce myself sooner, but with every

thing going on is just crazy

All of you been a wonderful source of info for me, Thank so much

Krys

Hi Bonnie

>have you noticed any behavior difference in your son after taking Niststine?

What was the dose and how long did he take it?

Thanks Krys
