Hey guys,yeast infection is gone..i used monistat and diflucan.Shingles is about gone too..yay!Now to focus back on stomach issues.I am currently taking ppi to see if it works to get rid of my ulcer.If not I will have another endoscopy and biopsy for h pylori and cancer.The capsule endoscopy is amazing...my DR showed me pics.The good news is he said i had one of the "prettiest small bowels" he has ever seen :s lol.No damage and a great mucosa layer just like it should be.Im happy to hear that,but very confused.Im starting to wonder if my problem lays in my intestinal tract at all?and maybe its just my stomach.I go back Thurs going to ask for more stool tests-check for malabsorbtion and h pylori.When I eat my food is not breaking down properly.Im assuming thats the reason for my weight loss?I would also assume that if i had parasites of some sort my mucosa and bowel would show damage seeing as how i have been sick for SO long.I really need to know what is causing this tremendous weight loss...its really freaking me out.
Curezone is really a great site, no doubt but in my opinion, there are so many misinformed people advising others that its really a vicious cycle for most.
OD'ing on probiotics, fermented foods etc is NOT a good idea. In fact many people end up with a bacterial over-growth from over doing probiotics.
I'm not saying taking probiotics for a while isn't a good idea for the OP, but don't over-due anything.
As far as your weight loss, I don't know your full story, but how often are you eating? Are you still eating a strict candida diet? Or are you starting to introduce new foods?
