My friend asked me questions suspecting her own self having candidiasis.
For the last 9 months she has had traveling swollenness, and most recently is the swelling of her lips.
It started out on her lower lip on the left side, by the end of the day it traveled to the right side of the lower lip and now moved to her upper lip.
It swells to capacity.
In the last 9 month, swelling has shown up on the soles of her feet, genitals, hands and lips.
It will occur and then disappear in a matter of hours.
It travels though.
In one day it can travel from her left hand to her right hand.
She is on medication for stress (a very low dosage) for the past 1.
5 years.
She has also been diagnosed with possible IBS.
She wonders if any of this sounds like possible candidiasis.
For me, this sounds like what someone just described to me as a food allergy, specifically eggs for this person.
That is all I know, and it may not be what you have, but it is worth checking into.
Candida sufferers often have food allergies, anyway.
All of a sudden with me, I became "so allergic" with latex I couldn't believe it.
I used to use a diaphragm for birth control and absolutely can't have that any longer.
I swell up immediately.
Even latex gloves to do my dishes make me itchy.
My doctor uses non-latex gloves instead of latex.
This came about, along with my other food allergies when I got very yeasty.
Anyway, I swelled, but stopped when I stopped being near latex.
