Itching/Burning Rashes under armpits

Any sweating or odor in the armpits? You could be releasing toxins through the skin in that area.

Any changes in deodorant, soap, skin care products? Is your razor new and clean? If it’s old or unclean it could have mold or bacteria on it.

Have you had mycotoxin testing done for mold toxins?

Could it be staph?

Bartonella

lynnwood,

no this is different this comes on and then goes away .. then a few weeks later comes on again and then goes away... i doubt cancer goes away

I agree with Quin, it sounds like Bartonella.

My yeast guess is based on having the exact same symptom.

3 -5 days with an OTD cream will be all it will take to find out, Of not your out $6-8 and a few days.

I recommend night since you can gob it on. I work so I can’t really do it durning day.

If so then you should look at your deodorant and take supplements to proactively manage yeast,

I have hair loss also but not sure on if it's yeast that causing it.

Biotin is one of my regular supplements to manage yeast. 10k mcg 4 times a day. Also helps hair and nails. Not sure if it’s helped. My hair loss does appear to have leveled off.

Acid support supplements are also used for both gut yeast and hair loss so maybe they are related.

I was rotating Nystatin and Fluconazole for regular yeast control but have move to more the supplement strategy. The Biotin does a pretty good job but I still got skin fairs occasionally but it been some time so maybe I’m over that. For gut I use coconut oil (paste) taste bad but it’s a whole body control and said to be as effective as both Nystatin and Fluconazole.

Thorne SF722 is also something I took but it’s pricey so it’s reserved for yeast bouts which I really don’t have anymore.

Yes I use Nutiva organic. The jar says oil but it comes in a paste. When I weened off the scrips I’d eat a tablespoon every morning. It became my good fat calorie intake. I gotta warn you it’s a bit rough tasting to eat like this. I recall reading people putting in in their coffee.

I’ve recovered a lot so I don’t take like this but love it for frying eggs and anything fried.

I’ve used coconut oil topically on the skin and also down “there” when I suspected a yeastie.
I added a few drops of tea tree oil and mixed it up.

Any changes, physedgirl?

I would suggest not shaving until the problem resolves. Even with a new razor, the potential to create micro-abrasions and spread or deepen the infection is still increased every time you shave.

I would opt for coconut oil and tea tree oil and see if it resolves. Also maybe aloe vera. Tea tree oil seems to fix everything fungal!

A word about fungal creams: they often contain steroids (hydrocortisone) to stop itching, so keep that in mind if you are sensitive to them or are avoiding them due to Lyme and co-infections.

This illness puts us through so much loss. I'm so sorry no one has been able to help figure out the hair loss situation.

thank you guys... means a lot to me... im trying to hang on for my kids.. they keep me going.. hate that they see me cry everyday as i hold handfuls of hair... they get upset too.
