OUR PATIENTS SPEAK OUT
Dear Dr. Biamonte,
I have suffered with symptoms of Candida for many years. I have been to every type of doctor for help to fight this sickness. It all started in 1993 and any treatment that the doctors tried made matters worse, usually by giving antibiotics. About one year after all of these symptoms started I finally found a Allergy Specialist that was willing to work with me. He did a lot of research on mold and yeast and designed his own program and invented his own testing for his program. He is very well known and has written several articles. I went through his program which is similar to the treatment that the Biamonte Center offers. I was with this doctor for approximately 3-4 years before I felt somewhat normal again. The diet was similar to Dr. Biamonte but the difference was that he used several different anit-fungals, changing them frequently to attack the yeast. I had to have liver function tests often since the prescriptions used could damage the liver. Even after this treatment with the Allergy Specialist I still had symptoms that came back with certain foods.
About 1 year ago I started with the same symptoms which progressively got worse. I looked up the Allergy Specialist and found out that he had passed away several years before. I found myself searching again for a doctor that would work with me and try to figure this out. Feeling the most desperate I have ever felt, I started to see any and every provider from PCP, Oral Surgeon, Infectious Disease and many other providers. None of them were willing to do more than one visit and send me on my way, sometimes they would order some of the same tests like routine panel, blood sugar, HIV and routine culture on saliva.
This led me to my internet search. I felt very leary about this but I was severely depressed and desperate. Out of all of the internet searches the program that Dr. Biamonte offered was closest to the belief of the provider that helped me so long ago. Still feeling somewhat leary I called and talked with someone at the office that very positive and helpful. She made me feel more sure about the decision to invest in this treatment.
Now I am 9 months into the program and feeling better everyday. I feel a comfort level that there is an end in sight. Even when I have a bad day it is very mild. My energy is back and I feel like living again. I no longer have any reservations about investing in The Biamonte Center. I know I am on the road to recovery.
After all of the discussions with Dr. Biamonte there is a last step that he has discussed with me that I feel like I missed the first time around. Introducing the “friendly flora” back into my digestive tract to give me the complete balance that I need. I am really looking forward to getting to this step but I am not there yet. Now I feel I have a chance to beat this because I feel so much better than when I started.
