Re: Hi There! I'm new to this...

Hi,

The peripheral vision sounds scary. Maybe you should talk to a dr. about that.

Joint pain is normal.

Keep taking the cat's claw but you'll have to stop taking the BC pills if you

want to cure your candida! It ususally is one of the causes of candida (just as

is antibiotics, etc).

Hi There! I'm new to this...

Also, I'm planning on starting the Three-lac supplement. Does anyone

know if a) I should stop taking the Cat's CLaw I'm on now and will

the three-lac have any bad interactions with the mainstream meds I'm

taking: Birth control, zoloft, and zyrtec.

Are there any great websites or books I should read?

Thanks!!!

Dear AB Young,

I happen to be familiar with your vision problem (assuming that it's

what I've had in the past, and it sounds like it). I don't think it

has anything to do with candida (perhaps " peripherally " -- ha ha).

Anyway, what I've had is flashing lights around the periphery of my

eyes. Eye doctors call it " flashers. " It can be a symptom of a

detached retina, so you should probably see your eye doctor. However,

lots of people get this with no detached retina. I was finally told

(after some tests) that it's optical migraines. I don't normally get

migraines but sometimes after an episode of flashers I have a slight

headache. I get these flashers a couple of times a year.

Hope this helps.

Thanks so much, . It's nice to hear someone else has

experienced this. I saw my doctor this week and she thought it is

probably related to my diet changes and was a migraine of sorts.

Apparently vision problems are very common in women with headaches.

I appreciate your response and good luck on your health quest!

Thanks, . I did go see my doctor and she told me it was

probably related to my new diet and was a sort of migraine.

Unfortunately, she doesn't know much about candidiasis. And I know

about the birth control. I'm working up the nerve to go off it.

Thanks, Abbey

Good luck, Abbey.  The BC pill is a biggie.  I ended up getting an IUD instead

which I think made my candida worse, so eventually my husband gave in and got a

vasectomy, so no more babies for me

It's too bad your dr. isn't more informed about candidiasis.  Mine is the same

way.  I thought I found the perfect ND but after my initial test for candida

came back negative I feel that she isn't looking into the symptoms as much as

relying on the standard testing, so I think I'll need to find another dr.  She

also prescribed probiotics with FOS in them and I found the online website for

that exact brand that said DO NOT take that kind IF you have candida!  It said

start with another form for the first 20 days then use the ones with FOS in

them.  (what would we do w/out the internet?)
