Sorry to start a new thread on this, but it won't let me reply to the other thread.
Yes, I know a couple people who told me they were on special diets due to candida or systemic yeast infections. They never described any black dots or lines in their cases. They focused on rashes when they ate bread or sweets, and CFS.
I agree, there is something about the symptoms that seems to overlap a lot - especially the brain fog, but the symptoms of candida are so broad that I think three-fourths of the world has at least three of them.
I really think there are three different things going on here. I would not be surprised at all to find out that some have candida or other fungal infections. I would not be surprised to find that that a lot of people here are not delusional at all, and do have parasitic infections. Then there is morgs.
There are reasons to believe any of the three in my case. First, I actually had yeast cultured off of me, took a couple pills from my doc, and healed just fine, probably a few months or a year before all of this started. But, when this started, my girlfriend was actually able to pick mite like critters off of my arms. Finally, I haven't seen a live mite in my skin in well over a year, and yet have the black dots and lines. Take your pick, at this point.
One thing I'm certain of - if this is fungal/yeast, then there is no doubt in my mind that testing all of these antibiotics will make me exponentially worse. That, in itself, would be diagnostically helpful.
Day three of my zithro test, and my symptoms ARE worse. So we'll find out (I hope) why they are worse. After the zithro, I'm trying the tetra. If the symptoms get worse on the tetra, I'm immediately going to do an anti-fungal and see what happens.
