Candida overgrowth and early rheumatoid arthritis
Hello,I am 34 y.o. female. I apologize for sensitive subject ahead of time.
I’m suffering from occurring vaginal and rectum yeast overgrowth due to intensive half a year antibiotic treatment for Chronic Lyme disease (was also using homeopathic protocol for Lyme). My current symptoms include itching and white creamy discharge of mentioned above parts. No smell, no swelling but discomfort day and night. I do get tongue thrush from time to time, had it several times during the last abx course.
I’m taking doctor’s prescribed Nistatin but it doesn’t help. I was taking Fluconazole and the relief is temporary. Also taking garlic pills, again no noticeable change.
I also have a symptoms of early rheumatoid arthritis (bloodwork confirmed) and my joints wouldn’t mind your help. It may be the result of prolonged Lyme, recent Parvovirus and covid.
General description: dry skin, cold hands and feet, worrying type, sensitive to noise and smell, depression prone, avoiding people and crowd, sleeplessness. Food sensitivity to bananas, asparagus, pineapple, gluten, dairy and citrus. Allergic to cats, dogs, horses and grass pollen.
Thank you everyone.

Hi,
Just fyi-to get rid of the candida, you must go on a protein/veggie diet. No sugar , fruit, alcohol as the candida lives off sugar and high glycemic foods that convert fast to sugar (like white bread) Homeopathic remedies can help, but if diet is not right, it’s a non stop fire overwhelming the remedies.
Drs also suggest you find a probiotic(with several bacterial a strains) that you can tolerate and take it for 2 months to repopulate the gut bacterial a that reduces the candida to normal levels. You have to experiment ment finding the probiotic that works for you.
Someone on here can prescribe the homeopathic strategy for you.

Thank you very much for your suggestions.
Not a fan of sugar anyway but in regards to fruits do I have to cut all of them or just the high fructose ones: grapes, bananas, etc.? And what do you think about berries?
I’m taking probiotics now, will be switching it back and forth.
Thanks again.

I think you have to be very strict for the first 2 weeks. You could probably get away with a quarter cup of berries a day. Its hard bc the candida die off will cause sugar cravings. Another thing is you can buy Candida cleanse pills -I am USA-Research reviews on Amazon for products. They help a lot.

Hi-Anuj is a very good prescriber on this site. He is not a “Dr” tho. Click any user name to see profile, and their past threads.
The dr title on here is misleading and bc people repeat it - everyone thinks it’s true. When I first came on here years ago, I was asking for complicated med advice and thought I was working with an MD. Reality was a grocery store owner in Sri Lanka was doing the advice. The forum owner will not change this so - Be aware.
The use of Candida remedy for Candida is called Tautalogy-Means giving the same substance as the disease. This never works too well. Homeopathy works bc the body reacts to a “similar” disease-
The body raises life force and targets the disease while clearing out the remedy. The body will not tolerate a similar second disease. Would be nice if we could take a remedy that was simply the diluted disease?
But unfortunately it rarely works.
See how you do with the candida remedy-I have seen a lot of ppl take it, thinking it would help, but no luck.

EXCERPTS OF AN ARTICLE BY A FAMOUS HOMEOPATH DOC IS REPRODUCED AS UNDER FOR PERUSAL PLEASE.
Clearing the Candida overgrowth
Another more recent approach I am taking in many of my more difficult Candida cases, is a process to remove toxicity from the body using homeopathic remedies. For this I loosely adapted the CEASE protocol developed by Tinus Smits, which has been so successful in treating people with autism.
Most commonly I use this protocol using Candida Albicans in potency, but have also used it where I believe vaccination may be the underlying cause of the symptoms. Although I haven’t done so yet, it may be beneficial to use Dental Amalgam in the same way where this would seem to be the trigger for the symptoms.
The way I use it is as follows:
Week One Candida Albicans 30c – morning and evening on one day (e.g. Monday)
Week Two Candida Albicans 200c – morning and evening on Monday
Week Three Candida Albicans 1M – morning and evening on Monday
Week Four Candida Albicans 10M – morning and evening on Monday
The patient will generally notice some changes in symptoms and possibly an aggravation as they go through this process. Most common symptoms seem to be an increase in bowel activity with mucus in the stools, which is definitely a positive sign. The four weekly process should be repeated until no change is observed. Repetition may have to occur several times.
Clearing the Candida overgrowth
Alkalising the body
One thing I do encourage patients to do is increase the alkalinity of their body, which makes for a much less agreeable environment for the Candida to live in. I have become a big fan of homemade smoothies and in the year since I started making one every day my own health has improved considerably. Here is a recipe sheet which I hand out regularly:
Making a green smoothie every day provides the body with micro nutrients, which are building blocks for every cell. It also helps to shift the PH balance towards a more alkaline state, in which it is more difficult for yeast overgrowth and infection to thrive. After 2 weeks you will notice the difference. Into a blender put:
250ml of filtered water
Juice of half a lemon or lime
3 inches of chopped cucumber
A stick of celery
Quarter of avocado
Sprig of parsley
6 – 8 basil leaves
Rock salt and black pepper to taste
Blend all ingredients together and drink half first thing in the morning before eating or drinking anything else. Have the rest at lunchtime.
You can add other green ingredients as you wish, plus garlic, turmeric and ginger which are useful immune boosters.
Other veggies you might want to add include courgettes, spinach leaves, rocket, watercress or kale.
For a change, try adding some berries and a bit less green veg.

Hi Anuj,
I agree with her diet protocols. I don’t agree with her Invention of Tinus Smits Cease Therapy approach. Tinus Smits was not doing anything close to a regular homeopathic approach. What I have seen is people who are not familiar with homeopathy buy the candida remedy thinking it will cure candida and then get worse. Having had the same problem myself after
Antibiotics, I found changing diet, getting a herbal candida cleanse herbal product, and taking nat phos 6x to reduce acidity, solved the issue.
