What about ammonia....I would think that would be a good cleaning agent?

As long as it doesn't get near bleach!

I been told for fungus to treat it with loads of acidophilos internally. And stay away from carbs. There are many good treatments for fungus. Check with you local health food store. Not GNC or HiHealth. Something reasonably sized but not franchised. Those people who are more knowledgable.

Wow...She did not have a blood culture with this problem. I am going to see that she does. Thanks!

[Quix]

Thanks. Will do.

Much appreciated. We have such a store here.

Not a blood culture, a mouth culture. They take samples from under the gumline between teeth and sent it out to a lab for testing.

Mine cost $200.00. Cheapest thing I've had done so far at the periodontist's office. :(

Thans Bear, I appreciate it! :-)

I still think money is about the germiest thing out there.
