I've begun my third month on antibiotic, first month on amoxilcilin, second on Biaxin, third Biaxin. My question is this: I was feeling better, almost normal for a week during my second month of treatment, then it's back to so weak and tired I feel horrible. Does this mean antibiotic was working and now isn't, doc asked me at last visit if I wanted to try another and it was my decision so I stayed on Biaxin since I did see improvement last month. But none since. Why??? I did have to come off of it for 5 days this past week because of diareaha. Upped the acidophilus for 5 days to calm things down and started up antibiotic yesterday. instead of taking both 500 mg pills at once now one every 12 hours. Why can't they know exactly what antibiotic will help you. How long does it take to know which one is helping. PLEASE anyone have any answers.

"Successful control and elminiation of a Candida Albicans overgrowth requires a multifaceted program as described below. Failure to follow ALL the steps simultaneously will result in slow progress and will lengthen healing time significantly. The program should be tailored to the individual and must balance the need to eliminate the Candida and deprive it of its food source while insuring proper nutrition for the individual."
Five Steps to Candida Elimination:
1. You must starve it into submission by eliminating its food source.
2. You must kill it with anti-fungal herbs and supplements. [e.g....garlic, onion, caprylic acid, Pau D'Arco capsules or tea, clove, grapefruit seed extract, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, tea tree oil, Echinacea, Goldenseal, black walnut, MSM, barberry root, uva ursi, neem leaf, biotin]
3. You must reestablish the proper balance and quantity of probiotic bacteria in the digestive tract. [...multi-strain lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidus capsules with FOS should be taken between meals to maximize repopulation of the digestive tract by beneficial bacteria.]
4. You must reestablish proper levels of all B vitamins (yeast free) and utilize other immune enhancing supplements to boost immune system function. [e.g ... B complex vitamins (yeast free), biotin, beta 1-3 glucan, colostrum, maitake mushroom, vitamins A, C, E, zinc and selenium]
5. You must cleanse and heal the digestive tract to promote proper elimination of toxins and Candida and assimilation of nutrients. [e.g...chlorophyll, MSM, omega 3 fatty acids found in flax seed and salmon oils, GLA found in borage, evening primrose and black currant oils. Pantothenic acid, digestive enzymes between meals]
Hang in there!!
