Hi Mary,
My opinion of candidiasis is that if the condition was created using
artificial chemicals perhaps the body isn't capable of recovering on
its own. Perhaps antifungals are required to counteract the antibiotics.
This is certainly my experience with candidiasis.
My SO failed to control candidiasis with diet and natural supplements.
In the end we were in the same position as you are... seeing slow
improvement but alarmed at the time it was going to take for a full
recovery.
So we decided to bomb the yeast with Diflucan and back it up with
Nystatin/Lamisil for a week or two. And as soon as the anti-fungal
course was complete she took mega doses of probiotics to reinstate
natural healthy gut flora.
This combination knocked the yeast out of her system then repopulated
it with the healthy flora before the candida could take hold again.
Very effective.
