Systemic Yeast Infection

Understanding a Systemic Yeast Infection
systemic yeast infection is also called “systemic Candida”. This is when the yeast infections spreads to the blood and thus spreads throughout the entire body. This is among the worst forms of yeast infections. The technical term for fungal yeast infections that spreads to the blood is candidemia.
While “normal and mild” yeast infections are treated with a topical cream, the systemic yeast infections must be treated more aggressively. If a body is left untreated, it can cause a host of health issues.

Symptoms of Systemic Yeast Infection
People with healthy immune systems may have small traces of yeast in their body, but their immune system is able to deal with it. People with weaker immune systems may come down with a systemic yeast infection and show these symptoms:
  • esophageal infection which includes nausea,
  • chest pain and difficulty swallowing, throat and
  • mouth infections called thrush may show up in people with systemic yeast infections,
  • skin infections may show up in the form of a rash in moist areas on the body such as groin, under the scrotum, under the breasts, armpits, or any area that comes in contact with outside things like catheters, artificial nails, medical equipment, bandages, or any area that is cut, scraped or burned.
 
Common Causes
The symptoms of systemic yeast in the blood are many. These conditions may or may not be a direct relation to the infection, but if any are present then the blood should be tested for yeast.
There is a correlation of autism and diet meaning the foods a person eats can directly affect the presence of autism in a person. Some autistic children have systemic yeast infections.

Celiac Disease affects the bowels and if this condition is present, it may be as a result of an overgrowth of yeast in the blood.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia are conditions that leave a body feeling weak and tired and fibromyalgia also has unexplained pain. Patients with these conditions often have too much yeast in their blood.

Crohn’s Disease, like celiac disease, affects the bowels and intestines. Patients with Crohn’s are susceptible toyeast infections.
Diabetic patients tend to suffer with more topical yeast infections, which make them more susceptible to systemicyeast infections.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) are again, intestinal issues, and again people with these have shown to be high in yeast in their body.
Systemic yeast infections may cause an increase in kidney issues.

Leaky Gut Syndrome, another intestinal issue, may cause a buildup of yeast in the blood.
People with Lyme Disease are susceptible to systemic yeast infection.

Sinusitis may cause yeast infections.
If a patient has a tendency toward skin rashes a check of the blood may reveal a systemic yeast infection.
Thyroid issues may cause an unbalance in the endocrine system that sets up for possible infections such assystemic yeast.

Ulcerative Colitis is another disorder that affects the intestines and bowels causing a susceptibility to systemic yeast infections.
