RE: Re: Dr. Rutledge - Lamacil ?

fyi...My husband and son both took Lamicil and it worked like a charm for

them. BUT, it IS 3 months of treatment and it CAN be awful for the liver.

Both had to have regular liver panels drawn. I can't imagine it would be too

good for am mgber...but then I am not the doc...lol

Re: Dr. Rutledge - Lamacil ?

Unfortunately he doesn't usually recommend anything. He doesn't like

the over the counters or the prescription medications. He

usually " grinds " the nail smooth periodically and that is about it.

The other option of course is to have the nail permanent removed -

not a good option.

I think I am heading toward the " old people " nails. If I am not

diligent about keeping them " smooth " with the nail thing that I use

on my acrylic nails they tend to get thick and " cloudy " . I don't

know if that is fungus but that is how I stay ahead of things.

Probably way more information than you needed or wanted huh???

Antifungal drugs are really hard on the body...I remember them being

described as " nasty " drugs by my professor. That doesn't mean they don't

work, and for some systemic fungal infections, they are a necessary evil.

That said, if I didn't need to take a drug like this, I probably wouldn't

take it.

You got THAT right...if only they agreed....

Re: Dr. Rutledge - Lamacil ?

I'm glad it worked for them -- they are in the minority - but they I

always knew there were blessed - especially by the presence of

temperature " QUEEN " !.

That really WAS funny because Tony always says I have a two degree

thermostat, that I am either FINE or NOT FINE...all part of being a Queen, I

say...and yes, I remind them daily that I AM A QUEEN, so I thought it was on

purpose...(you know the towels in my Bathroom say Queen , so trust me,

I am NOT kidding!) I can be the temperature QUEEN. I use airconditioning in

my car in the winter if I am hot and the heater in the summer if I am

cold...drives him CRAZY!!! LOL

Re: Dr. Rutledge - Lamacil ?

That was supposed to be " the QUEEN " not temperature - the

disadvantage to typing for a living and having a " word expander "

program coupled with being half asleep when you were typing!

The sentiment is the same however!

And - you know that they know you are their queen - even if they

don't say it out loud!
