Hi
Thanks for your query at HealthcareMagic.
I have seen all your reports. The reports are only positive for candida in esophagus and indirect bilirubin is little raised. Otherwise your reports are normal.
Now candida is an overgrowth (and not an abnormality). It is overgrowth of normal flora after probably you took some antibiotics or maybe stress. You have already taken antifungals for it, which can cause some side effects like vomiting and affect liver and your symptoms are not relieved with it. Your liver may already be getting affected so you can stop the ingestion of these medicines.
In my opinion you dont need medicines to treat vomiting. Your vomiting seems to be happening in response to food (and water). There is something in your food/water that is responsible for these symptoms. Now it is hard to guess what it is. One way is to eliminate food items one by one for 1 week each and see if vomiting is relieved. For example you may eliminate milk and milk products for 1 week and see if there is improvement. Then you can eliminate egg, etc.
Candida is a very common problem nowadays especially due to increased and often unnecessary use of antibiotics. One way to manage your symptoms is to use very clean drinking water with lowest ppm from RO system. Avoid taking mineral water and tap water. As per my clinical experience of 9 years this should really benefit you. Till your symptoms improve please take antiemetic medicines like ondansetron.
Hope it helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
