I am unable to take any of the prescriptions for fighting fungus. I

suffer from many forms of fungus and am anxious to kill it all. If I

have to suffer for two weeks through taking the fungal defense in

order to kill off the nasties then I will. Many of the women on this

group have used it, and it was highly reccommended. Besides, I have

never taken any tests to find out whther or not I have a reaction to

silica. I take many products that have silica in it and do not feel

bad from them. I am having a reaction to this because of the die-off

of the fungus inside me. It's normal to feel bad, some women get

violently ill from a herx. As long as I am not going into a bad herx

and am able to slowly build up with the pills then I should be ok.

And better than ok in the end, I should be without fungus

infections. : )

I really like you ladies and my heart goes out to you all. But I think I

asked a question that I shouldn't have. See for me, I had to spend four

years of my life fighting these exact same conversations with our doctors

and specialists, around thrity or more of them between the three of us,

almost every day! All experts, all convinced that the antibiotics they were

giving us were helping us, and trying to convince them about what was

happening to us, damn near killed me. So I sure have no bussiness trying to

tell any of you ladies what you should and shouldn't be taking. It just

hurts to read your e-mails and see you all hurting so much and I just wanted

to be able to help. I hope that you do get well and recover from your

surgery soon. LT

Dearest Lana:

You are such a sweet lady. In my case I think that I might be an experiment,

we will never know. If the rotten plastic surgeons had removed both of my

breasts and cleaned me out properly, my life might be better today. They

were both hopeless, they believe that silicone is safe. I have a young

Mother here and her implants have been ruptured for years and the same idiot

who tried to clean me out told her that her ruptures won't hurt her. She has

the double lumen and she really does not know how to fight and claims that

if she dies her husband won't have to pay off the mortgage....this is all so

sick.

I do not believe that you were telling us how to run our lives, I believe

that you are trying to help us. If you or anyone else can help me, I would

be so happy.

We all love you....Lea

Hi ,

You will likely need to be on a fungus product a lot longer than two weeks to get it under control. You might take a look at rockwellnutrition.com and look at their fungus protocol. I’m not sure if their HMF products contain silicon or not but they are very good. There is a entire protocol for fighting candida.
