Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 > > Dear Bee, > > Sorry to post so many messages but I am at my wits end. The bad skin > itch and redness which the ortho tells me is a fungal growth on either side of my body is now really really bad covering a big portion of it and I am on the cusp of putting on cortisone cream. ==>Oh no Perihan. Do not use cortisone cream; it is highly toxic/poisonous to the body and it will only cause more problems and increase your candida overgrowth. All drugs suppress symptoms and do not treat the " cause " , which is a depressed immune system. ==>Your fungal skin problems are evidence your immune system is extremely depressed and the only way to cure it is to build up it up. In the meantime your body will re-trace previous skin problems, in addition to creating healing reactions. ==>Itching is caused by histamines produced by the immune system in order to heal. >Everything I wear has become unbearable and am walking around in bathrobes to avoid contact with clothes. I have been taking epsom and salt baths, sprinkling bs and dalloping coconut oil on it to no avail. ==>Those treatments can help, but they won't cure it. Healing comes from within. See our " C) Skin Treatments " folder for more help and information. > Actually the only thing which helped was the two weeks I had in Turkey when I swam every day and exposed my skin to the sun. Back in cold Belgium and it is back with a vengeance. I do think though it may also be a healing reaction as I have upped my fat intake especially coconut and it has gotten worse since the diet. Do I hang on or what do I do? ==>Yes, do hang in there. Natural healing takes time, patience, and persistence on the program. Do ensure you are taking ALL of the supplements. In the " skin treatments " there will be baking soda treatments which will help alleviate your symptoms. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
