38 Years Old, Has Strange Fungal Infection

Posted By Shayla (Morrisville, Vermont) on 01/11/2009

Hello Ted,

I am a 38 year old female that just had a large fibroid tumor removed that I had for many years. They left all of my organs. I have a strange fungal infection that I had before the surgery, but as I feared now it is growing stronger. I tried not to take the drugs they sent home with me to avoid further problems.

I have very painful sores on the lower inside palms of my hands. They itch and burn and pop. It is spreading to the space between my thumb and pointer finger on both hands. I had this same thing on one of my left little toe that grew really bad. I was able to knock that one down with soaking in listerine for about a week. I am now itching all over. My lower outer arms, front of lower legs, and feet itch horribly. I cannot stop this with anything. I have not been eatting sugar at all. I seem to have a problem with carbs of any kind. I have been eatting homemade yogurt, taking spirilina, and Irish Moss lately, so I don't know if the algae could be making things worst. I seem to recall a slight reaction to one of these in the past. This seems to be in my blood because I also get cold chills. I read on line that other women that had this operation complained of lots of cold chills, but I did not hear about this itching all over.

I have been drinking the Borox in the 20 Mule Team for about three days now. I have bathed in it a few times, and put the powder in my socks. I thought I was maybe starting to notice some relief for a bit,but now I am not sure it is working. How long and how much should I expect to take to see results. I feel like giving up on it at this point. I need to know if I am giving up to soon.

If you can offer any suggestions, I would appreciate that. I also do not know if you will respond to the site or in my inbox. If you could reply to me that would work best.

Thanks.

Shayla

I have been struggling with an similar infection on scalp and body, thought to be scabies, possibly Morgellons, possibly dermititis of some kind. Anyhow, I did try the Alfalfa tablets <25> dissolved in a hot bath,no rinsing, blot lightly with clean towel and air dry It's been several hours and no itching, my bumps are less painful. May be worth a try, I am also starting to take them orally, as directed to help from the inside out. Let me know if this helps, God bless and keep you safe. JC
