As I said above, I’ve been juicing lots of carrots & oranges & I know that those are sweet. Could that be it?
Also, my ears get stopped up the instant I drink water (& stay that way for a couple of hours). That is what made me go to the dr & he said possibly yeast. I have no thrush symptoms, etc, but a couple of weeks ago some sores started to pop up in my mouth, went away & have done the same now 3 times. Food doesn’t taste right & I notice a sort of "slickness" behind my front teeth.
I am at my wits end. The dr prescribed Nystantin, but I’d prefer to go natural & try baking soda. Is that ok? Like a tsp to 1/2 a glass water. Will that make you have a lot of stomach gas?
Thanks! I sure hope someone has some answers here!

The foods that you have been eating probably have nothing to do with it (unless it is really old and is starting to go spoiled). More then likely it is if you smoke, take oral meds (steroids & antibiotics), are becoming pregnant, taking the pill (basiclly hormonal changes) or…
…you are eating yeast.

J/K (hopefully)
The reason you are probably stopped up is that the infection has affected your Eustachian tubes (tubes that drain your ear into your throat. Nasty? Yes…). You can to pop you ears (pinch your nose and blowslightly until they pop) unless it is too painful.
Baking soda can work. but drinking plenty of water & eating natural yogurt is easier and probably won’t upset your stomach (don’t know about the baking soda causing gas tho), but you should ask your Doc.
Good Luck.
