I don't have the sweating problem so I'm not sure about that, but I have the same yeast symptoms as you and I've been on the Candida diet for months. Get 'THE YEAST CONNECTION' book and you won't feel alone. Unless you see an MD who also practices alternative medicine or a Candida specialist, doctors will think your nuts because they are clueless. My sticky skin started after I used Secret Clinical Strength Deodorant, and it spread to my entire body and it hasn't gone away. With the help of scf500, I got the allergy testing & found out I'm allergic to Sodium Benzoate & Colophony/Cellulose which is in most deodorants/shampoos/toothpaste, etc. I have the terrible stickiness on my lips everyday, my throat is always sore, my mouth is always slimy and my tongue has a white coating on it. I don't have the bumps in my throat that I know of, but it makes me wonder if we're having an allergic reaction to our toothpaste??? Most toothpastes contain harsh chemicals that you mop floors with. I'm switching to Tom's Natural Toothpaste to see if it helps me. I now think yeast or thyroid is the underlying factor because they both cause allergy issues, and I've never had allergies in my life until now. My only other thought is that maybe we have a bacterial/viral infection causing the stickiness. I have horrible pelvic pain daily... I have an elevated amount of E. Coli in my urine & vag cultures, but it's resistant to the antibiotics I've tried. Is there any chance you could get another culture of the bumps in your throat?? If I had the bumps, I'd try to find out. Most doctors only have bacterial culture swabs in their office to check for strep so you have to ask for viral testing also. Most gyn's test for both... maybe yours could culture your throat for you?? I'm curious to see what you find out because it could help me too. However, it could be an allergic reaction to toothpaste rather than a scary infection. Thanks!
