Test Results Mood

Thursday, July 24, 2008 | A Breaking News story

Candida

I saw candida doctor on Wednesday. Test results came back, I tested positive for candida overgrowth.

He told me that the goal is to:

1) stop the yeast

2) kill the yeast

3) build my immunity.

He wants me to:

-continue on the candida diet,

-take shots for building immunity,

-prescribed Nystatin to kill yeast for 6 months

-test for thyroid problems,

-take urine test to check on my magnesium levels.

I don't mind receiving shots, but I either have the choice to receive them through nurse ($26.60 once per week) or administer them myself (cheaper just pay for 1 vial which is $90 for 8-10 shots) I really don't want to give them to myself and I want to see if there is an

alternatives to shots.

Career

I saw career counselor today. I told her that my main interests are: Health, Music, Psychology, and Carpentry. I've always joked that my interests are so varied. But she

mentioned that Music and Health = Music Therapist, etc. For a long time my dream has been

to become a life coach. But I don't know where to get started (my obstacle).

She also suggested that I change my resume format to focus on my skills, since I no longer want to do customer service work.

WHO-HO!!
Good for you on both counts: It's good to know you're on the right track with the Candida and you've just taken the first step in a whole new life as part of a career change. So well done!!
If you dont want to give the shots to yourself, what about asking a friend or family member?

You're making good progress with sorting things out. i'll be rooting on the sidelines for you!
