Yeast? Carbs? Die-off?

I need a little help!..well alot actually :)  I am experiencing these sensations to my skin that were my very first symptoms years ago.  I was told by a Holistic practitioner that it was yeast overload.  It feels like a burning sensation on the top layer of my skin and my face and head.  Also my tongue burns and feels numb at times.  It gets pretty overwhelming especially when I lay down at night.  I'm also having burning itching on the outer part of the rectum.  Also really struggling with the concentration and memory.  I even missed my appt with Boaz last week - which left me in tears...I know this is pretty normal because Boaz always asks me about this one. These symptoms had all subsided when I started the protocol.  With all the talk recently about carbs and starches I am wondering if I am over-indulging or if it is just part of the die-off process.  Even though it is much better than pain and frequency it is still very uncomfortable.  I have my appt with him today and was going to talk to him about it...if it is die-off then yay bring it on...can't wait to rid my body of this junk but if I am causing it such as too many carbs then I cerainly don't want that to hold me back in treatment.  I try to stick with the 1/3 portion at each meal as recommended.  When I first started treatment I only allowed myself about a tablespoon at each meal...thinking I may need to go back to that for now and see if it helps.  I sure wish it were alot easier to get down to what's going on with these things.  Anybody have these symptoms?  If so what did you find that helped?  thanks.

Don't get too obsessed with the carbs. All of the sudden- everyone is going crazy about carbs. If he tells you 1/3- stick with that! He knows what he is talking about.

Feel better soon

Patty we are just having a chat about carbs! The recommendations outline here on the website are 1/4 carbs unless you are underweight. 25 % carbs, 25% protein, 1/2 Veggies.  Certainly double check with Boaz. It is quite common to revisit old symptoms. could even be retracing. Did you read the Healing Crisis? I think you did! There is also nothing wrong with eating slightly fewer carbs for a while. If it helps then it helps. Let us know what he says. Also, Boaz and Matia don't eat carbs at dinner, so I imagine their carb intake is pretty low? Just sayin' :)

If we don't excel at health, the only other option is disease.

thanks Mimi.  He said to keep the carbs as they are right now and up'd my GML and Ear.  So we will see.  He thinks it is likely die-off :)
