Candidiasis Causing Uncontrollable Itching

Posted By Dejinah (Palmetto, Florida, United States) on 03/04/2013

Ted, Bill, somebody; please help me. I itch everywhere to the point where I have dug holes in my scalp scratching. I have an ulcer in my crack (Sorry, don't know another description) I have raw spots in various skin folds, acne at age 55, occasional rashes, inflamed joints, arthritis, attention problems, mental fogginess, tiredness, chronic cough, food cravings, vaginal issues, constipation, itchy anus, depression, etc. Given my sugar addiction and a social schedule that involved nasty banquet food & wine it is without a doubt it is candidiasis. I've been trying to clear it naturally for months with no sign of improvement. I refuse to go to doctors because, just like when I had a congenital brain tumor and MANY physicians thought I was a hypochondriac and/or neurotic and prescribed narcotics, tranquilizers, anti-depressants, sexual therapy, psychiatric help for my headaches & other symptoms; I'm sure going for help with this would be like getting on the hamster wheel to Hell. The brain tumor saga went on for 30 years until I demanded an MRI and it was discovered. Also had similar experiences with gynecologists so I gave birth at home. So I've spent the rest of my life trying to stay out of doctor's offices & hospitals. This is what I am doing to help myself:

* Strict sugar-free, wheat-free diet with limited carbs
* Morning drink of 3 cloves garlic & Epsom salts
* Probiotic and inulin 1 hour later
* 25 drops Lugol's iodine 3X a day
* Lots of raw garlic, garlic pills, 1/8 tsp borax, I tsp 12% hydrogen peroxide, oregano oil, 10 drops grapefruit seed extract spread throughout the day
* Probiotics 3-5X I hr after
* 8-10 glasses of reverse osmosis water
* Pau D'Arco tea
* Daily enemas (currently water- considering adding coffee & garlic)
* Astragalus, vitamin C, multi-vitamins
* Have recently added bentonite & psyllium shakes 3X a day for additional detox
* Replaced all metal fillings
* Applying raw garlic followed by tea tree oil directly to ulcer (wow that's fun! )
* Will start undecylenic acid when it arrives tomorrow

After months of near-starvation and an insane regimen there's no sign of die-off and only a slight improvement in the itching. Why am I not getting better? What else should I be doing? I'm running out of money and hope. I can't go on like this.

I am reading.... (you put the lime in the coconut and mix them both together, put the lime in the coconut makes you feel better ) in a book with a treatment plan for candida. I have candida too and thinking about trying this recipe.... coconut can cure..... maybe it would be an answer for you.... I can't say.... just spreading some HOPE.

Itching is a die off sign. I used nystatin for 4 yrs. and followed the strict candida diet. Never won the battle, but living to fight another day, and planning to win.

My heart has been compelling me to send arrows to heaven for you, I hate sufferring and am very familiar with a lifetime of it.

I use 3-7 tsp. of coconut oil a day in my food for my brain and it has helped my skin , dental pain, and the ringing in my ears has reduced dramatically.

I put a little everywhere. You can start by rubbing it on your sores and cracks and it will heal and relube those areas. It melts at lower than body temperature. So take a spoon of it and start spreading it, brush your teeth with it, put on q tip and put some in your ear if you have ear issues. Put some coconut flakes in yogurt .

Some people learned that it soaks in skin of people who haven't eaten any and they start doing better. Start slow, it can cause die off too.

I haven't used any lime, yet, but getting my courage up. Sickness makes everything feel scarey , especially if you have ever been allergic to every thing, food, clothes, water, air, yourself. Well, it is a long journey but we can win and I plan to.

Blessings to you, my arrows will continue to pierce the heavens for you.

I did some more reading on cracks in skin and sometimes you need to use alcohol... ouch or hydrogen peroxide before applying the coconut oil and if needed you can put a bandage over the coconut oil to keep the area well oiled. Still shooting up arrows for you and hoping each day you find you are improving.....

Are you doing Ted's Alkalizing Protocol along with your regime plus the Baking Soda in half glass of water taken 1/2 to 1 hour after every meal? The reason I ask is I justed started my own Candida Protocol based on Bill's Candida Protocol. So when I started the diet before anything else so before introducing the anti fungals and the alkalizing, supplements etc I was so weak after day 1. I thought how could I be feeling so weak when I am eating better? I thought how can I keep going like this after day 1 of extreme weakness? My body previously was getting its energy from all the bad sugars I was consuming so I was so acidic. THEN I read Ted's posts on the pancreas. Without sufficient bicarbonates, the pancreas is slowly destroyed, insulin becomes a problem. When we eat, insulin is released into the blood stream where it helps to move glucose from the food we have eaten into cells to be used as energy. This is why Ted suggests to drink Baking Soda in half glass of water taken 1/2 to 1 hour after every meal on top of the alkalizing protocol. Since I have been alkalizing and adding BS to the regime I feel I have the energy to carry out the other parts of Bill's Candida Protocol. Good luck-hope this helps!
