Stop echinacea! Try:: It sounds like you are allergic to echinacea- this is uncommon but possible. Stop it now. Echinacea is not even known to help candida! Eat a low starch diet and take probiotics and antifungal drugs and/or herbs such as Pau D'Arco, Oregano oil, garlic, grapefruit seed extract and plant tannins.
