Guest guest Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Nerves can actually result in an itching sensation - often this is caused my muscle spasms or irritation. I had always thought that my itching must be due to yeast, but have since found out that 75% of my itching is neuropathic. It could also be yeast that is not showing up in tests - the best way (I think) to see if yeast is the problem when you're testing negative, is to go on a yeast-free diet to see if it gets any better. I did this after about 50 negative yeast tests, and I felt better within 3 weeks. good luck! _________________________________________________________________ Find sales, coupons, and free shipping, all in one place!

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 I've been using boric acid every night for about two months with no problems. I'm using it for a Strep B infection after using many antibiotics that didn't work. I think it is helping get rid of the Strep B.
