i know that sounds like an uterly stupid question but i really need to know.

i am suffering from severe anxiety i know i really am afraid of yeast.

my symptoms are thrush, itching ears, pretty much every symptom i have.

guess i'm saying i know there are stages but how do you feel in the stages? how ill can you be without realizing it?

i am not making any snese at all am i?

I'm sorry that I don't have an answer for you on this as I am still very "new" to Lyme.

I just wanted to say that with illness ... EVERYTHING is scary to me ... so don't be afraid

to be afraid! Hoping someone knowledgeable will come along and address this for you soon!

You can take a blood test and a stool test for yeast. It's not always easy to differentiate between the disease and the yeast issue.

Sounds like it could be yeast. You could try Nystatin and see if you herx - if there is a yeast die-off, you will get herx like symptoms.
