Hey Tanya
I also did the 3x3 and had bad thrush in mouth which was hard to shake so can relate. I took lots of probiotics pills and eventually get rid of it. Also throat gargle for sore throat. The fec was easier for me. Had no reaction but found taxo harder with each treatment i had. Usually felt fine after treatment but hit me for six around day 5 or 6 for about 2 days then recovered from there. Salted potato chips helped me with the nausea and heartburn.
Take it one treatment at a time and be kind to yourself.
Also be really careful with hygiene and stay away from shopping centres snd sick people wherever possible.
Take care.
