Hi all-
Did anyone here find that they had an issue with yeast even though their bloodwork reflected that yeast was not a problem???
Also, did anyone find that yeast issues flared for them when they were on an antiviral such as Valtrex or Valcyte???
My fatigue has been SO MUCH WORSE since strating antivirals and I've been wondering if yeast could be an issue. In the past, when my fatigue was the worst, it was always when I was on the heaviest abx....
Currently I'm on just antivirals with probiotics but not Diflucan or Nystatin....
Thanks so much...

I don't remember fatigue with valcyte....
There is such a thing as a viral herx though.
I didn't take valcyte in isolation. I was on other antibiotics at the time.
So.....yeast was an issue.
