“Fake” Diagnosis. : The possibility of Candida overgrowth as a cause of G.I. symptoms has been studied extensively and has not been found to be a real diagnosis, despite what everyone reads on the Internet. G.I. problems are very common with fibromyalgia, however. Your best bet is to consult your physician or a gastroenterologist to help you with your digestive complaints. Good luck.
