Just found this wonderful source of information on fibromyalgia, glad to know others seem to realize candida and fibromyalgia are related.

I share much of my experience and what I have learned from many sources on my www.squidoo.com/stemcellrenewal from books that helped me, supplements, lifestyle changes. I write about my experience on my green4health blog inside of website.

I hope to share what I have learned, and others may learn something new. Hope it helps others.

-lack of willpower: from a chinese tcm perspectie: kidney funciton is down, leading to all sorts of things. The kidneys are involved in controling water passages ,thus frequently the cause of edema or asthma, they are in control of the bones, so osteo porosis, in control of heat in the body and here it becomes interrsting for CFS, provide teh physiological fire, ie required for good digestion. Kidney Yang deficinecy symptoms are the symptoms of hypothyroid. The kidneys have other functions too, and affect other systems, so I suggest other than a good intestinal support program and getting rid of hte yeast, to supplement with B vitamins and adrenal glandulars.

Wishing you good health

Yeast is only a part of it. CFS will remain if you kill the yeast because the fact that the yeast was able to take over in the first place means damage was already present. The damage is also causing immune system dysfuction (because the heart of the immune system is in the guts), malabsorption and the resulting nutritional deficiencies. As a CFSer who is curing myself, I am sure of this. Without going into great detail, you can cure CFS in most cases by fixing the damage. Your focus should be intestinal hyperpermeability (aka leaky gut) and gut dysbiosis. The good bacteria in the intestines produce enzymes and vitamins that we need, and also many neuropeptides and other components of the immune system. Fix the intestinal hyperpermeability and gut dysbiosis, and you will fix CFS. The only problem with this is you need a severely restricted diet and many supplements and it takes anywhere from a few months to a couple of years. If you are addicted to crappy foods, you better find some willpower. Find a specialist who can interpret and recommend proper diet and supplements by use of a Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis test. If you want confirmation that you have leaky gut, there is a test for intestinal hyperpermeability, too, though it's my belief that 90% of CFSers have this. Don't expect a medical doctor to be able to help you or to even know what you are talking about if you ask him these things. You need a health expert, NOT a medical doctor - they will only make you worse and take your money. I went from bedridden and incapacitated to 80% functional. Find a knowledgeable naturopathic doctor, not just any one. good luck
