And of course I have the rare medication resistant one 🙄
I got some test results back from the doctor yesterday. I have a rare candida infection that I’ve been struggling with for years and it seems to be getting worse. The strain is called candida lusitaniae. It is resistant to medication. Which makes sense because I have tried different medications for years to try and treat it but nothing ever helps. From what I’ve read diet and herbal supplements, can actually have better results than doing the pharmaceutical route. It just sucks because the diet is so restricted. No sugar, gluten, dairy, starchy vegetables, or fruit. Which I guess is fine in a way because my stomach hurts all the time from this infection anyways. I can hardly eat anything. I’ve lost 3 pounds in the last week. There is a small chance that this infection can be fatal but it’s only a small percentage like 5% of people. Kinda scary. So hopefully I am able to overcome this and get better
