I was just reading over some of the yeast posts, and ran across this. I have wondered in the past if I have systemic candida due to bloating and gass I get from apples, other fruits, and some foods. This is the first I've run across something about corners of the mouth.

Over the last year or so the corners of my mouth have become red and raw feeling, drying and cracking at times too. I asked my doctor about it, and all he said was "stress" and let it go at that. My mother used to complain of this too, and I used to think that perhaps it had to do with eating acidic foods or something.

I'm very new to the idea of systemic yeast infections. How did you come to understand that this was yeast related? Recently I don't seem to have it as much, but I'm worried about it flaring up again. Do you still get it? What did you do to make it stop...was LC'ing enough?
