default
Posted on Mon, 24 Nov 2014
Question: Hi - I was diagnosed with IBS 7 years ago. I have tried everything - gluten free - wheat free and nothing seems to help. Have lost and continue to lose weight around my face, hands , feet. Really look unhealthy.

I fist though I had picked up a STD as I have also developed swollen glands every now and them but all tests have come out negative. Colonoscopy also done - nothing found.

Now when I eat my nose starts to run and always tired and moody. Have also had candida twice in last 7 years that I know of. I am now trying a candida cleanse diet as I do not know what to do anymore... Please can you give me some guidance
