I have had the most bizarre detox symptoms lately. I've been through lots of detox episodes before, but this seems to be really different. I'm only about 80% raw right now, but have been taking about 3 tablespoons of raw coconut oil a day. I know coconut oil is really powerful for detoxing.
I've gotten a horrible yeast infection that has lasted off and on (mostly on) for about a month. The strange part is that it's like an "external" yeast infection....i.e. the surrounding areas red, swollen, very itchy, and sore with a little bit of "normal" discharge stuff from a regular internal infection. I've had yeast infections before, but not like this.
I put straight apple cider vinegar down there for two days in a row (I know I probably should have diluted it). It burned like crazy for 5 minutes and then got rid of the itch for the rest of the day.
My question is.... when you are detoxing and get rid of candida do you break out in yeast infections as the candida is being eliminated??
I've also had other weird detox symptoms like I've never had before. Every few hours, I'll have intense sneezing and runny nose attacks that last for about 5 minutes. I usually get ear infections when I detox (time to do ear candling again) that are so painful. I had one the other day and couldn't stand the pain so I took Advil. Yikes! (Very rare that I ever take ANY medicine). I broke out in hives on my eyelids and my eyes were almost swollen shut for a day. Silly me didn't think at first it was the Advil that caused it. Three days later I took another Advil for another ear infection headache. That time a large area below my left eye swelled up for a day. It look like someone punched me, and I had a black eye. Not that surprising that Advil did that to me considering how bad it is, but I'm obviously very sensitive to stuff right now. Also, I'm just sort of itchy all over. I feel like my bloodstream itches?!?
Do you think the coconut oil is bringing all this about?? Has anyone had strong detox symptoms from taking coconut oil??
