Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Thanks Helen mine stings too and it's INCREDIBLY itchy in that fold. Not a normal itch that can be scratched away, but when when I scratch it, it gets even MORE itchy. The Hydrocortison cream worked wonders but kept me awake, so I'm wondering about the Lidocaine. Bonnie Re: coconut oil Bonnie, intertrigo is when the skin is irritated from rubbing against other skin in the folds. The weakened skin is then susceptible to yeast, which is what happens to me. The lidocaine 5% ointment is a numbing ointment, my yeast stings and this quiets the pain. Helen M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Both my husband and I use lidocaine ointment with no problems. He uses it for aches in his knees and back, I use it for skin problems. It is a prescription, tho you can get from Canada without a script.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 You are so right!!! Oregano works wonders. It is one of the oils we recommend for the Super Bugs. http://healingwithessentialoils.com Go to the single oils place.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Sometimes when you relieve pain, with something like the lidoderm patches, it will not come back right away, or will not come back at all. You sort of reset the pain pathways, which are really out of whack in people with fibro. The ointment, with the bag balm, kills the yeast. I first just used the ointment, then someone on a diabetes list suggested bag balm. I find the effect is synergistic. Both ointments can be said to have healing properties, especially for skin.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I just recently bought some coconut oil from one of our local health food stores (after reading all the good info on it). I did some research and read that you want a coconut oil that has no GMO, is unrefined, not made from copra, not hydrogenated, not bleached and not deodorized. I also read that extra virgin is no different than virgin as far as coconut oil is concerned. If you have allergies make sure it indicates it doesn't have that particular allergy. Jarrow makes one that is free of nuts, gluten, soy, dairy, egg. I cooked with it for the first time the other night (I usually use olive oil). I was concerned that it would be much sweeter and have a heavy coconut taste. My whole family loved it. I made chicken with it. It was not real sweet and did not have an over-powering coconut taste. I only tasted coconut here and there. Not that I don't like coconut, but I don't want to taste it in everything that I eat. I was very pleased with my first try. > > Hi, > > I've heard a lot good things about using coconut oil as cooking oil > Can you give me specific brand name?

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi there, I remeber when I was first rying the egg drink...and I just couldn't drink it, I found it too sickly. I tried Jecca's icecream recipe, which uses the egg drink ingredients, but produces a different texture, which helped a lot. Then I discovered Anita's coffee shake adaptation, where you add I cup cold strong coffee instad of water. I use a tablespoon of cinnamnon with it, and if you leave it a few hours or overnight in the fridge, it's like a thick milkshake. Then there's Nan's eggnog recipe. If you search these reicpes in the message search, you should find them. You can try using hot pau darco instead of water, and a tespoon of ground ginger, and stevia to sweeten. That's another nice variation on the taste. Hope this helps, Nicola All the best, > > > Hello this is my first message to the group, or rather a question. > > I have tried Bees egg drink but I can't take to it.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 What about the egg drink can't you tolerate? When i made it with 2 cups water , coconut oil,, butter and 2 eggs, I couldn't even stand the smell or taste. I have reduced the water to 1 cup and added stevia and now I can tolerate it. The smell and taste of egg aren't that strong any more [ ] coconut oil Hello this is my first message to the group, or rather a question. I have tried Bees egg drink but I can't take to it.

Welcome to our group. If you live in North America the best and least expensive virgin coconut oil is available at Mountain Rose Herbs, Eugene, Oregan, for $28.00 US per gallon. Any coconut oil you use must be: unrefined, undeoderized, unbleached and unpasteurized, and organic or certified organic. There isn't enough information about the kind you bought. You could contact the company to find out more about it. See the group's files (left menu) for the Coconut Oil Folder where you will find much more information about it, and also websites and brands. Yes, we can all thank our candida for making us " smarten up! " LOL! The best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It tastes the best to me and brings my body temperature up to normal with regular consumption.
