"It has been demonstrated that, due to higher blood glucose concentration, diabetic Candida sp. isolates present significantly higher hemolytic and esterase enzymatic activity, which may contribute to increased enzyme activity among diabetic patients"https://t.co/tva63mEAmc
"TRELEGY 100/62.5/25 mcg can cause serious side effects, including: fungal infection in your mouth or throat (thrush)."https://t.co/seWSXXB193
I learned recently that when a diabetic type II patient goes to the ER for having trouble breathing related to their asthma medication, specifically mentioning their throat closing up... No one looks at their throat and they assume it's Acute Bronchitis.
I figure... that when a patient goes in to the ER about asthma problems and trouble breathing that maybe someone would look at their throat/mouth to check for Thrush?https://t.co/T6TRbJGVBQ
Prednisone & Doxycycline for the "Acute Bronchitis"So thats cool."Medications. Drugs such as prednisone, inhaled corticosteroids, or antibiotics that disturb the natural balance of microorganisms in your body can increase your risk of oral thrush." https://t.co/2hb7iBiQ8q
Ok cool. I happened to look in their throat cuz they were still having breathing problems and it was red. And there was fungal colonies all over the sides of the mouth.So did they actually have Bacterial infection/chest cold? Don't know.
It took me 3 seconds to look in her mouth and see the problem and the red in the back of her mouth.Then she went to a clinic and they saw the fungus.Now I have to pray the Mycostatin doesn't dive more interactions with her other meds and hopefully actually works this time.
The best case for this situation is she actually had Acute Bronchitis (they tested for pneumonia and Covid at the ER) and it went away... But that implies they gave her a Candida infection with the meds and is now in worse condition than before.
I hope that she's not going to have a reaction to the Nystain. I'm not very confident right now.https://t.co/MPnW21F2sf

Slightly worried about E. Coli + Candida synergy => biofilm as possible driver.https://t.co/IEcaaaxN6j
E. Coli is a possibility given her weird iron levels that doctors have also attributed entirely to her menses.https://t.co/te5MXx6Lvu
@literalbanana If I'm right. we ought to expect that depression (which has signature of impaired e-coli in the gut https://t.co/wbieUmJ2ik ) is possibly downstream of a fungal imbalance. Because yeast and e coli can both live off iron, they may be cooperating.
Can't get doctors to test for this stuff.But they scratch their heads a lot about weird phenomena and then I do something and bam, the problem fixes.https://t.co/KWgouwmfye

@schulzb589 @davidasinclair Acetaldehyde driven by sugar feeding various fungal agents is probably what we are seeing, with heme from animal products combining w/ candida species to promote biofilm production with E coli in the gut (which doesn't happen in vegan since E Coli has alt metabolic pathways.)

We need to think more holistically."The inclusion of antibacterial drug exposure in a multivariable model significantly enhanced the model's predictive accuracy for fluconazole-resistant Candida bloodstream infection."https://t.co/SxcJxib65G
If gut bacteria fight yeast and protect us from pathogenic strains. We ought to expect that killing off the gut using antibiotics or by tweaking the immune system using tylenol, that the body will not be able to fight off fungal infection.

GF had the worst candida flair up so far, It'd been under control but something about catching covid(?) absolutely made this latest menstrual cycle really bad. Been kinda scared. https://t.co/TD9CougUuf
I think me and the GF have covid? All symptoms and symptom progression. I got a bad fever, headache and a runny nose + lots of thick mucus (especially in stool). Also we both got weird farts before we saw nasal symptoms.It's hitting her lungs way more than me. Kinda scary.
Her lung issues subsided, but she was complaining of not being able to breath while trying to sleep. Her tongue was coated with yellow colored mold (candida stained with what I think was coffee).https://t.co/oXhHh05abv

We're just started rinsing her mouth w/ MCT oil sometime after her salt gargle (which is multiple times per day as long as she isn't causing damage).Salt gargle seems to be mechanically removing visible fungal hyphea(?), so I figure the MCT oil will help coat the site after.
I'm just thankful that the IBS symptoms from covid were temporary. If this was a year ago we would both probably be dead. https://t.co/36iddy7Bhk
