Hi. Suggest you send an email to Anahata (Andrew). He is knowledgable on candida and we both use a system called NAET.

Hope it helps.

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Thanks Candie I'll do that 🙂

Snowdrop- never met a pretentious snowdrop before. Please remember these are real people with real feelings here and appreciate compassion and help not a fortune cookie reader. Being glib is easy and when young a lot of us do this because we get into something and think its the answer- life is more complex than that though. If you have never experienced anything like the anguish some people here have gone through then you probably dont realise how rude and arrogant a post like that comes across as- please dont do that to anyone else. Better to say "You are in my prayers" or some words of empathy than glib, thoughtless lines.

Idiot

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Dear Idiot,

The antifungal drugs you ask about are Diflucan & I think Canistan have now released one. Their about £8 - 12 a tablet - you only get on in the box. They're advertised for women with thrush, because they think men never have this problem. [sm=banghead.gif]

Like I said on the other thread - It's likely to make you feel a whole lot worse for a day or two. Okay, you may then feel better for a few days or a week, but it may not be worth it, if your system is so low. 🙁

Most likley foods that will aggravate: [:o]

Joint & Muscle Pain (Inflammation) - All simple sugars in any form, even fruit sugar - take a low acid or esterfied vitamin C supplement.

Non fermented dairy products: Milk, cream & processed food containing lactose (the sugar found in milk).

Foggy head, joint pain & depression - Grains - wheat is most common, followed by other gluten containing grains. Have a chat in your local health food shop. Try a gluten free porridge & unlevened rye bread.

Tea & Coffee, maybe also. Drink Rooibosh tea from Health food shop - it's an excellent cleanser & it's alkaline. Another option is Nettle Tea - pick 'em dry 'em - make tea, there fairly cheap to buy, though.

Very tricky, if no money, cos the only allergy testing, reluctantly available on the NHS is the skin scratch test, which by their own admision (post on that somewhere) is not much use.

To do it on a low budget would be:

Get yourself an Allergy Test - VEGA, BEST or MORA systems from a reputable or recommended allergy tester - if you're unconvinced.

Otherwise - go straight to a NAET Practitioner. Any decent practitioner will have a concessionary rate for those on a low income and you can just go when you can. YOu don't have to go regularly. YOu can just go when you can afford to!

There's a database of practitioners on http://www.naeteurope.com/gb_default.asp & more info on the NAET website in my signature below. As yet there aren't many practitioners in the UK, but will do our best to try & rustle up someone for you if we can.

In the meantime you can get your local library to order in the book -

Say Goodbye to Illness - Dr Devi Nambudripad or Say Goodbye to your Allergies (simplified version of SGTI- for lay people) by same author. 😉

I accept that this may seem all a bit odd, but if you have multiple Allergies, sensitivities & intolerances to food & other things that are continually in your system, then you may have no idea what is causing what symptoms. [&:]

I have been thru CFS (M.E.)/Fibromyalgia / Multiple Chemical sensitivity - call it what you will - I am 99% sure that it's all the same stuff and that candida is a secondary problem because the immune system is preoccupied over-reacting to all the other stuff. Will get soap box out on the Fatigue problems thread under Ailments, which is where this thread may get moved to in time, so bear with us. [8D]

As for the slight variations in the symptom picture - well people are different & sensitive to different things. [sm=scratchchin.gif]

I admit that I do still get caught out on occasions. e.g. Eat one type of bread one day - fine, Eat another, on another - oh dear! [>:]

Think Candie cleared that one for me on Friday ( food Additives & Colourings) - so we'll see - proof of the pudding & all that! 😀

Good Luck - And.

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Hi Anahata

Thank you for your reply.

Just for info: I take a 1000mg of Vit C per day. I drink decaffeinated tea and that is the only time I have a little milk usually. I use Splenda rather than sugar and have one spoon in tea. I am not ken on Rooibosh- I persevered with it for a month or so but its not nice 🙁 . I dont eat grains generally.

What I do do thats bad is feel low then eat a bar of chocolate and/or profiterroles or other sweets but this is fairly sporadic.

I have not had the stomach ache for weeks before and this is worrying- Ive never been regular regardless of exercise level or water intake- once every four to five days- but the Doc didnt think this was a problem.

On the website I found a lady close by in Gravesend, Kent doing Naet. I am just a bit concerned because I have tried so many different things in the past- when I had some money- and everyone says yes we can help but they get my money and I got nothing. Forgive my scepticism.

Should I not try the thrush tablets as if its allergies then that wont make any difference will it?

I appreciate your help- sorry my tone is a bit negative but I'm worn out with all of this.

Take care

Idiot

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

It's not an instant quick fix, although occasionally you get the odd one with dramatic improvements. I do recommend you get your hands on the second book I mention above to make the most of it.

To save me re-writing half my life story 🙁 - there's some on this old thread.

http://www.healthypages.net/forum/tm.asp?m=811

Might fill a few details later.

And.

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Dear IS, this sounds horrible. I really feel for you. Has your GP not been able to help you eg with blood tests, or have they drawn a blank? I'm not a medical practitioner but I wondered about ME when I read your symptoms. If you want I'd be more than happy to send you some reiki healing, you can PM me if this is something you'd like. Big hugs and lots of strength being sent in the meantime [sm=hug.gif]

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Thanks Siobhan

I am a Reiki level three myself- good at helping others when i feel up to it but not good at self healing here. Please send me some 🙂 Reiki- thank you.

Dont think its ME cos it isnt always debilitating- some times I have a fair bit of energy. However this stomach ache and energy drain is causing me to get very tearful and thats something I rarely get like.

I think Im going to find out about the Institute of Optimum Nutrition first then look into NAET but Reiki will be appreciated while I do that 😉

Take care

Idiot

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Just a thought, that if you haven't got the money for a full treatment, you could always find someone who's training and volunteer to be a case study? Hope you get better soon.

June

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Good idea June 🙂 Cheers.

Ok guys any one want a lab rat?

Idiot

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

What a great idea June. Where are you based Idiotsavant? Even if I don't know anyone in your area I might know of a school you could contact offering to be a case study person. It can be hard to get volunteers sometimes so I'm sure you'd get taken up on that offer. Any particular therapy you'd be interested in or are you pretty open on that score?

Reiki hugs being sent, by the way!

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Hi Siobhan

Thanks for the Reiki hugs 🙂

I'm in Medway, Kent and am pretty much open to trying any type of healing like nutritional, energy, massage, acu, psych etc etc.

Cheers

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Hiya! Got a link for you from Association of Reflexologists website. It's a list of their approved training schools in the UK so hopefully there is one near you that would welcome a case study person: [DLMURL] http://www.aor.org.uk/index.asp?page=learnschools#k [/DLMURL]

You could also look at the ITEC website for training centres near you: [DLMURL] http://www.itecworld.co.uk/CollegeList3.asp?_method=Go&pcount=1&p0=12849 [/DLMURL] - I see there is one in Snodland if that's near you? Postcode is ME, is that Medway?

That's for starters, got to be worth a try. You could also do a post on the Students forum here asking if anyone needs a case study person. Bet they would bite your hand off!

Good luck [sm=FIFangel.gif]

RE: No energy, foggy head, weakness, soreness, pain, tension, depression etc etc

Hi all

I took the Canesten tablet two days ago and havent felt any different so guess it cant be candida related???

The stomach ache is still here and has been worse at times but I am despondent about seeing my useless GP as I dont think thats going to help.

The two links kindly given havent resulted in anything unfortunately but Im still looking.

Waiting to hear from the brain bio centre and then will phone the NAET lady.

take care all

Idiot
