If it's a bacteria/fungus problem then how come that doesn't show up when people get biopsies? I had the flakes on my lips tested and it came back negative for bacteria and yeast. A few months ago, I took numerous Antibiotics , antihistamines, birth control...yes, that really hurt my system and all that poison made my lips worse. My vagina started itching really bad and I thought it was a yeast infection (it can happen from taking too much Antibiotics ) but after visiting the gynocologist, the test came back negative for a vaginal yeast infection. However, after about a month of extremely healthy eating, the vaginal itching disappeared. So where am I going with this? I don't know. I've been scrambling for clues such as the source of this problem, any allergies, dental fillings, ect. Right now I'm just focused on one thing: nutrients in, toxins out. I'll let food and whole food supplements be my medicine and let my body heal itself. This is NOT a normal condition. There is something wrong with our mind, body, and spirit and we need to deal with all of that before we heal.
