Candidiasis... The Yeast Infection
Content: Dr. Martin H. Zwerling, M.D., in an article published in  the South Carolina Medical Association Journal told of an  "incurable" patient who was being treated by several  specialists: "Her gynecologist is treating for recurrent vaginitis  and irregular menstrual periods, while an otolaryngologist is trying to  control her external otitis and chronic rhinitis. At the same time, her  internist is unsuccessfully attempting to manage symptoms of bloating,  indigestion and abdominal pain, and a dermatologist is struggling with  bizarre skin rashes, hives and psoriasis. Lastly, her psychiatrist has  been unable to convince the patient that her 'nerves' are the cause of her  extreme irritability, inability to concentrate and depression. Some  doctors would label such a patient as "psychosomatic" and since  there is "nothing physically wrong", the doctors might conclude  that they cannot cure her." Incurable? Not if you THINK YEAST! This patient and thousands like her are suffering from  chronic candidiasis. Some of the sickest patients seen in private practice  have a problem with Candida albicans and will respond to treatment.
