Diarrhea: Candidal infections, are overgrowth of normal yeast cells, in the gut. It's often caused by antibiotic use. it usually causes diarrhea. Treatment is cheap and effective with oral antifungal medicines, unless your candida is out of control due to other serious medical problems you may have. See a doctor and find out if you have it, and the best treatment.
