I’m on the ‘big3’ for MAC and I have severe Crohn’s disease. I’ve not taken them all week because I have such a miserable yeast infection from them. I went to the doctor in March and got a treatment, but since I keep taking the antibiotics the yeast does not go into remission. I take probiotics, and have many creams. I cannot get any rest because of the yeast. I have only been on the MAC treatment since December. How do others handle the yeast infection from the treatment?

For the mouth, you can gargle in vinegAR and peroxide. This will keep the yeast down to nothing in the mouth. I didn't have any more yeast problems.

When my lungs were full of mucous and tested positive for Candida, I used Candida Cleanse, 2 tablets a day for 60 days. My next bronchoscopy sample showed no more Candida.
