If you dont have vag yeast, does it mean you don't have systemic yeast?
I failed the spit test --stringy yuck! And I am very ill. (Also, sometimes there is white lumps after BM (sorry so gross) What yeast test do I as llmd about?
Also, do those who successfully treat yeast have easier time with herxing?
Thanks!

NO! absolutely not!! If you've taken an abx, you probably have yeast. If you've taken one for months, then it's a problem for sure.
You will have an easier time of EVERYTHING if you keep yeast at bay. A test won't tell you much. Just go on the diet, and you will find out if you have it.

Our llmd feels that many Americans because we eat so much refined grain and sugar and so few vegtables, have yeast issues, even before taking abx!
He said frequent athlete's foot, a belly button that smelled and chronic sinusitis were a few indicators of yeast. He mentioned others, but I forget what they are.

Thanks for that thread lyme too. It sounds like getting diflucan is easy...Last week when I asked my lld how I would know if I had yeast she just said OH YOU WILL KNOW.
Will she call in diflucan over phone you think? Also, I want a prescription for questran...don't know how to get that out of her too but I think both will help my herxing and current extreme ill feeling.

Every time I go see my LLMD they take swabs for yeast and almost every time I'm really high. i've been on and off abx (mostly on) for almost 2 years.
I'm currently on Diflucan once again.
