Fighting yeast while dealing with food/histamine intolerance?

[Adamsmama]

I'm dealing with a histamine intolerance, possibly salicylate intolerance and have yeast problems for the past 2 years. I've taken several antifungals. I now make my own yogurt about once a week. I'm at the point that my body seems to be fighting off the yeast depending on what I eat I can feel better. I know with too much sugar or even bread/carbs I can feel the growth happening again. Please help me know what I can eat to fight this. I'm doing the failsafe diet but have recently been able to add in sweet potatoes, carrots and a tiny bit of cucumbers (might have too much sals for me). I can't do fermented (other than my own yogurt) or aged foods at all. If I do the candida diet would my diet look like this?:

Meat -- chicken or beef
Yogurt -- my own made plain
Veg -- celery, lettuce, (cucumber?), carrot???
fruit -- golden delicious apple once a day???
Is that it???

To make matters worse I'm struggling with hypothyroid and on meds for this. I also have asthma and I'm taking a very low dose inhaled steroid for this. I've been struggling with oral thrush and vag. yeast. Diflucan has helped a lot and I'm wondering if I should take another course of that (last one was 3.5 months ago)

Should I be gargling with hydrogen peroxide?

We're also really wanting to TTC but I feel that I need to get this in order before then. Also dr. wants my TSH levels down to a 1 (they are now at 3.8 ... they've come down a lot but not enough for their liking).

Do not place hydrogen peroxide in the mouth IF you have amalgam (silver mercury) fillings. It releases mercury into the blood circulation by vapor exposure.

TSH of 3.8 is too high to be safe for pregnancy, from my understanding. Have you had free T3 and free T4 and antibodies drawn?

Are you taking any probiotics or antibiotics, steroids? There is controversy about fermented foods on a candida diet. I definitely fall in the pro-probiotic group.

Try coconut oil topically for the yeast.

Have you eliminated gluten and dairy from your diet? Most dysbiosis is a result of antibiotics, steroids or food intolerances.

That is what my dr. said, too ... he increased my dose and I come back in to the endo in Feb. I'm not currently taking probiotics ... but I do eat plain yogurt. I do take inhaled steroids. I can't tolerate fermented foods because I react to them (histamine/amine intol). I will not use peroxide.
