Hello! Diane - I'm so sorry to hear you had a reaction to Dove soap! :( I started using it after scf500 said it worked for her. I'm surprised that I can tollerate it as I'm allergic to everything. On a positive note, at least we are both doing well with SURE deodorant, yea! I got a bad tingling in my mouth after flossing with Clean Burst dental floss. I read somewhere (I think the allergy pamphlet from my dermatologist) that floss is coated with one of the chemicals I'm allergic too. Also, my lips feel really scorched and start burning if I use certain toothpastes. I cannot wait until I get these yeast allergies under control! It's so strange how our skin types are so different, yet we suffer from sticky skin. I wish I was able to use Ivory soap, but it seems to make my stickiness worse. A lady at Sephora recommended that I test new products on the inside of my wrist and let it sit for 24 hours to see if I get a reaction... maybe that would be helpful for you too.
The website you recommended is great, and I'm going to look into getting Doug Kaufman's books. I found another book recently at Borders called 'The Bible Cure for Candida' and it's been helpful too. THANK YOU for telling me about your friend who had success using the yeast free diet. It's been a struggle as I have a tendency to cheat sometimes. My sugar craving take over and it's hard to resist. My doctor just put me on Diflucan so we'll see how it goes. (Thanks for the website info Pat, I'm doing ok with it so far!) I had a sonogram and everything looked normal. I know my PH is off, and a stool test showed that I have no Lactobacilli Acidophilus (good bacteria) in my system from taking too many antibiotics. Hence, this has allowed the yeast to spiral out of contol so I'm starting probiotics to try to get back on track. Hopefully the Diflucan works against the type of yeast I have. A culture showed staph aureus so I know it's a combination of yeast/yeast-allergy & bacteria causing my pain. I wish I could try the Cleocin to see if it would help, but I found out it's the same thing as Clindamycin and I'm highly allergic to it, bummer! I'm praying for wisdom for my doctor to give me the right meds to make me pain free!
