Some Symptoms

Here is a helpful and pretty complete list which I found on Candida Free:

"Symptoms vary from person to person and fluctuate in severity, or may come and go. Most symptoms are invisible, which makes it difficult for others to understand the vast array of debilitating symptoms with which we contend.

The most common are:
an incapacitating fatigue
problems with concentration and short-term memory
flu-like symptoms such as pain in the joints and muscle
extreme tightness in the shoulders and neck
hyper-acidity/acid reflux
brown colored mucus in the back of the throat
blisters in the mouth/tongue/throat
either white or "blood blisters"
un-refreshing sleep
sore throat
white coated tongue
dark circles under the eyes
an aversion to being touched or jumping "crawling" skin
chronic sinus problems and headaches including migraines
chronic dental problems
Visual disturbances may include blurring, sensitivity to light and eye pain.

Psychological problems may include:
depression
irritability
anxiety
panic attacks
recurring obsessive thoughts
personality changes and mood swings (irrational rage or crying for no reason - fear of talking to people, any kind of confrontation, isolation)
paranoia

More of the physical symptoms may include:
chills and night sweats
shortness of breath
dizziness and balance problems
sensitivity to heat and/or cold
alcohol intolerance
gluten and/or casein intolerance
irregular heartbeat
irritable bowel constipation and/or diarrhea
painful gas and abdominal bloating
low-grade fever or low body temperature
numbness, tingling and/or burning sensations in the face or extremities
dryness of the mouth and eyes
difficulty swallowing
projectile vomiting

Also:
menstrual problems including PMS and endometriosis
recurrent yeast infections
recurrent ear infections
rashes and dry, flaking skin
eczema
dermatitis
acne
skin discoloration and/or blotchiness
dandruff
jock and rectal itching
chronic athlete's foot
chronic toenail and fingernail fungus
ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
allergies and sensitivities to noise/sound, foods, odors, chemicals
anemia
weight changes without changes in diet
light-headedness
feeling in a fog
fainting
muscle twitching and muscle weakness
restless leg syndrome
low sex drive and/or numbness in the genital area"



Out of the 61 symptoms listed, I currently have 45.
(listed below for my benefit so that I can look back and remember what I "used to have" when I no longer have it!!)

The most common are:

extreme tightness in the shoulders and neck

As well as other symptoms I've been told can be linked to candidiasis:

Thanks. Hopefully you map your road to recovery. Look into high dose vitamin c, liposomal glutathione for detox and ozone therapy. Most of these you can do at home. Plus learn how to properly test for heavy metals and get them out.
