| 3 | toenail fungus | redness of skin it touched sock fuzz sticks to it | I was given a sample bottle which I have just finished with. Fungus affected only the lateral (left) quarter of myleft big toe. I excised/removed all the nail that was separated myself and filed/ground off with a battery powered manicure thing everything that wasn't living and was in the affected area. I did the weekly remove with alcohol and restart the layiering. I was extremely compliant and regular about the daily applications. Every time I removed the weekly build up, I would remove any nail that had grown out that look diseased. There has not been any progression of the fungus. 'That in itself is great. I do not expect a cure after one sample bottle. I read the abyssmally low success rate. Since the options are to let it do its thing and my nail will fall off completely and it will spread to other nails if I do nothing, take a harsh pill or comply with an extended regimen of nail care and polishing...Iwill give this a good try. I believe the key to having any success at all | F | 45 | 8 months | 10/21/2005 | 3 | toenail fungus | redness of skin it touched sock fuzz sticks to it must be obsessive about application and nail care or all is in vain | I was given a sample which I have just finished Fungus affected only the lateral(left) quarter of myleft big toe.

This is a modern day snake oil! I don't know of anyone who had any positive results. | Was the FDC asleep on this one? | M | 57 | 1 years | 8/14/2005 | 1 | nail fungus | none | Tried it for a year with no results.
