Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Hi Kids, Couple'a questions on systemic fungi (like candida, for example). What are some basic symptoms? What are some effective natural solutions? Background: I've had eczema, it's now just going away after 6 months, (I had it once before, starting 3 years ago, and that bout lasted a year), and I've had what my ND said was most likely a fungal ear infection for the past 3.5 years. (I'm now on grapefruit-seed extract on a cottonball stuck inside my ear for that. It ebbs & flows. There is an orangish-brownish discharge occasionally, often coinciding with bouts of mild-to-severe itching.) I'm wondering if the eczema (which is on my right wrist and pinky) and my ear infection are linked? (I had done some preliminary research that hinted at this and so I'm following up on it.) What do y'all think? Cheers, --Jeni-Laura PS: Ain't my Momma (ID afj1952shj) cool? You've always been so nice Kelli, again being right there with a warm welcome!

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 I'd be interested to know more about the fungal ear infection - I've had a mucus discharge - mostly green - sometimes bloody - it gets worse during a cold - in my right ear - and yes, it does itch. I've also been dealing with what I believe to be candida - because I also have recurring psoriasis and athlete's foot. When my ear problem first started about 6 years ago, my E.N.T. Doc put me on drops - I took them for about three months. It would go away and come back. I finally gave up on the E.N.T. doc and the drops - I've tried more than I can remember names for, LOL. I've made tea trea drops using apricot oil as a carrier - with fair results - it still comes back after I stop using them, though. Please don't tell me to try the cleanse - I'm working on procurring the supplies to do just that:) I would be very interested to know what exactly a fungal ear infection this is, and what to do about it - besides the cleanse (which I've read so much good stuff about that I'm hoping that it will help all my annoying little problems - which I suspect are "leftovers" from the time before I changed my diet.).

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Get some Black Walnat Tincture from Doc, and make Potasium Broth, (in files). Cleansing would be very good also.
