    Yes and YES.... I had toenail fungus on both my big toes, it started on my right big toe. I have been using magnesium oil on them, one toe is fungus free now, the other is taking a lot longer but I did start having it after I gave birth to my now 9 year old daughter. My feet are cracking as well, never had that before.

    Did you say dry cracked skin and toe nail fungus ?? I certainly had it soooo bad, that bad ,that i woke up one morning and my toe nails just fell off . My feet looked absolutely terrible for months . I started taking Calcium tablets and this has helped a lot . My feet are back to normal again . It was all due to lack of Calcium . Hope this has been helpful . You also might be lacking in Calcium . Hope yours clears up . x

      Were your nails black? Mine don't look like regular fungus, just black. My left one fell off and a new one grew back, and now my right one is black, has been for about a year. Once or twice it would throb all night too. My pedicurist said to soak my toe in hydrogen peroxide. I haven't done it yet. Lack of calcium is interesting, what did you take?

      never heard of black fungus, but I guess it is possible. Mine is a yellowish tone thick and chalky.

    I was dealing with toe nail fungus too, but finally found a way to get rid if it. I used tea tree oil and oregano oil. Put it on the toe nail four times a day for two months. I was battling it for a year and a half. This combo finally cleared it up. It will mildly burn a bit, but it isn't bad.

      Hi again Susan,, I also have been struggling with candida systemic infection for about 17 years it almost killed me at one point but when I get the fungus on my toe it is a sign to me that my yeast is getting out of control again... which has been going on with me most of my adult life..... So I start taking as much probiotics that I can my key has been to try several brands until I find the ones that work for me,, don't cause stomach upset, etc.. because we are all different... I also have several types depending on how bad my stomach is acting up.. they do help but I do know what you mean about things that can make you worse oregano oil made me worse also...I also watch for foods that aggravate and avoid yeast products like the plague and sugar,, try to use stevia have gotten use to it over the 17 years and the consequences of sugar are just to high... good luck hun!!! If I can help in any way let me know!!! have a forms of yeast all the time,, even psorises on skin....❤

      The whole not knowing what you are saying part is part of peri as well hahahaha..... I think not eating enough can also contribute, maybe that is it? Lots or protein (natural) seems to help as well. Walking, water, sunlight...I don't get my symptoms quite as much the more of those I do.

      did an actual medical doctor diagnose the systemic yeast infection? just curious as it seems a lot of people make money from candida! 😕
