How To Diagnose Candidiasis?

Question: Hello, my mother thinks she has Candidiasis. However, the problem I have is that she is starting to think that everything in the house has a weird version of Candida fungus all over it - she thinks it moves and squirms around and forms white specks and literally eats through an extreme range of materials, such as pork roast, wooden countertops, stainless steel kitchenware, facial creamer and more. I can't see anything that she's talking about. It always seems to me to be light reflecting off water droplets or imperfections/scratches in certain things. I think part of the problem is she may be focusing unconsciously on eye floaters and she may be seeing things moving when there isn't any. Is there anything I can do to help her, at least mentally? She may actually have Candidiasis, I don't know.
