Is it possible to heal from Candida overgrowth whilst taking an immunosuppressant?
I’m prone to slipping into Candida overgrowth.
Years ago I did a 3 month diet programme with a naturopath to resolve a lot of issues related to Candida - mainly severe eczema.
I have had severe eczema since I had my baby 10 months ago (topical steroids have caused a lot of additional issues). My skin became impossible to manage and now I’m on 200mg daily of ciclosporin.
I don’t feel like it’s really working now, and feel like my immune system is so suppressed, the Candida has had chance to flourish even further.
I want to do the same diet again to get this under control but is it even possible to heal whilst taking this?
I intend to stop the ciclosporin once it’s calmed down a lot, I don’t want to stay on it long term but I cannot come off it right now. I’ve only been taking it for 6-8 weeks and my skin was a wreck beforehand
