Numbness and Candida

[Zowie]

Hi Shelley and fellow candida sufferers

I just wondered if anyone has encountered numbness with their candida and have you overcome it? I have two small patches that feel a bit numb, one on my right shoulder and one on the top of my right thigh and one on my big left toe. They feel strange, and a bit numb, but when I tickle the patches I can feel the sensation and when I stick a pin in the patches they hurt just like any other part of my skin would.

Has anyone come across this and how do I overcome it? I am just coming to the end of the school holidays and have had major sugar binges over the last 5 weeks due to the stress of looking after my two boys!!!! I wondered if the odd sensation was due to too much sugar?

Many thanks

Zoe

Yes, it is one of the sugar-diseases, losing sensitivity and odd nervous system complaints. It can also be due to spinal subluxions, which can actually be triggered by sugar's way of upsetting our mineral balances and vice versa.

Please read the sticky posts in all the forums and the FAQ, you'll learn about Skin Food and how to supplement safely and change your diet to something safer without giving up all the fun foods all the time.

Hi Shelley and Janey

Thanks for your replies. It has made me feel a lot less worried than I was before I posted. I have also got an underactive thyroid and suffer from vertigo/constant feeling of dizziness and was worried it was some seriously neurological even though all tests (including an MRI with contrast dye are normal). I think I am totally overrun with candida so really do need to get a grip on it. I have been trying for 3 years now to get it under control - I really must try harder.

Thanks for your help.
