Changing health theory

I am beginning to question what is wrong with my health.

Is it possible that ulcerative colitis is true but secondary to Candidiasis? I have had the belief that UC made me more prone to Candidiasis. What if it is the other way around?

Once before and now again my health has improved (slowly) if I addressed Candidiasis. When I had the colonoscopy, the night before I had to completely clean myself out. That's understandable. But what if that merely cleared out the Candida so it was not visible? The only thing that would be seen would be the damage it had caused. I had also been taking steps just before then to address Candidiasis, so there may have been little to clear out at the time. 

I have known for decades I am far more prone to fungal infection than bacterial or even viral. That in itself DOES indicate an autoimmune disorder. My immune system is on continual hyperdrive. But only against bacteria. 

Going to keep up the regimen to control the Candida and maybe test myself on foods I have omitted from my diet. In a few weeks or months. No sooner. That would give me an answer.

Had a bout of insomnia last night. Strange dreams. Went to bed and to sleep around 10:30 and woke up around 12:30. I'd had a headache all day yesterday yet strangely it was gone when I woke up at 12:30. Took until almost 4 to get back to sleep. Got up a few minutes after 8. Pretty sure it was related to the health issues. But not in a bad way. Think it was final stages of getting better.

My gut feels better than it had for quite some time. No more bloating. But I've lost a lot of weight.

I think the vinegar tablets help a lot more than the liquid but the liquid got things started. The tablets reach further into the intestinal tract before they are neutralized by the body. I actually think it takes a long time to clear Candida because it goes all the way through the intestines. As you use vinegar to clear it out, it starts at the top and is quickly neutralized. Treatment must be fairly continuous or it just grows right back from where it remains in the lower intestines. So it basically does no good to treat it unless you keep treating it until the entire digestive tract is back in balance. 

As Candida does off it releases toxins, making you feel worse. It's the same chemical which causes a hangover. When a lot of it dies off, symptoms become severe. That would explain the headache yesterday. I just got the vinegar tablets day before yesterday and started taking a lot of them. Very slight headache today but not nearly as bad. Brain fog is gone, which had also gotten pretty bad. 

Going to stick with my current regimen for a few months before considering any changes. I will know if it is effective if I start gaining some weight, meaning my body is absorbing more nutrients. For now I am happy to not have gut pain or nausea for a change.
