Help!
Two years ago my wife was treated with antibiotica for a breast
infection.
Since then we have not been able to share a bottle of wine or
some good bread. This is, we believe, due to candida.albicans.
She is suffering stomach pains a while after trying to
eat/drink anything that contains yest or sugar.
Doctors in Norway do not accept the possibility of c.a. causing
digestive trouble and will consequently try to blame her problems
on something else.
Any information and possible contact addresses will bee thankfully
received.
Post to jan.han…@atik.no is delivered to my most used mail system.
Thanks in advance
Jan

Why do you believe this?

You would probably be surprised to find out the foods she is already
eating which contain yeasts and sugar. Exactly what drinking wine or
eating bread has to do with with a supposed infection by _Candida
albicans_ is not clear to me.

Which seems like a reasonable approach to me. It’s not called "blame",
it’s called the process of elimination. It sounds to me that you would
prefer that they "treat" her for an infection which they do not believe
she had and which they do not believe is the cause of her problems.
