Hey guys!
I've been monitoring what I eat in my diary on a daily basis for almost a week per my new naturopath's request. We are doing Advanced Allergy Therapeutics because I am reactive to food that I am not technically supposed to be reactive to as well as other things like chemicals, smells, toxic things, etc. My mast cells must be overractive as well as my histamine levels. Because I am challenged in detoxing (the worst kind MTHFR, CBS, along with other gene mutations), I also react to introduction of new supplements. And nothing really gets in, but we'll be working on that as well. My stools are loose even though I eat well and have been for half a year. But at least they went from diarrhea to somewhat formed-ish stools.
Something interesting I noticed whilst writing what I eat everyday and what reactions I get. Today I made pork cutlets and they have chia and flax seeds in them. After eating then, after an hour or so, I got headache, abdominal pain, and burning skin. And of course a feeling of being overwhelmed and heat. Apart from that, I got a little tingly/itchy as well. And it was pretty bad. I tried to keep calm and just watch a favorite movie of mine and drink water. Everything else I eat, I only get a little tingly and itchy usually, but not as intense as after eating the cutlets. I went back a week, and I ate cutlets that time too, with the same amount of chia and flax seeds. That time too, I experienced the same symptoms.
Wondering if this is a die off from Candida! Also, my tongue has a white coating, but not throughout the whole tongue, more like in patches.
Also wondering if Candida can make you have the following symptoms (which can be Lyme as well as from co-infections and MCAD):
-Anxiety
-Depression
-Muscle pain/tightness
-Itchiness/tinglyness
-Burning skin
-Chest/solar plexus pain
-And the usual digestive issues
-Dry mouth/throat
Is there a good test to verify if one has Candida? I did one recently, but it showed negative.
