Try taking olive leaf extract (GNC sells it ~$11 for 60 pills) 6-8 pills for a week. Olive leaf extract is an incredible antiviral and antibacterial compound and was successful in eliminating a plantars wart of mine that was ailing me for nearly 3 years. I'd seen it written up to help toenail fungus and suggested a family realtive take it. He did and was very pleased with the result. Another family member took it for athlete's feet and that too cleared up. Good Luck!

I have heard that liquid viatamin E will help as well as the over the counter toe nail fungus liguid. both are supposed to be applied directly to the toe nail.

Like most of these types of cures, and wart cures, you have to do it every day several times a day. Otherwise it won't work. And it takes a long time to get rid of it.

VINEGAR! 5% acidity. Soak a cotton ball or qtip in it and apply to nail twice a day.

I had my large nail affected for 5+ years, and it cleared it up in two months. Fungus doesn't like acid, and it will cost you less than $2, what do you have to lose besides 8 quarters??

Talking

I have tried everything that Foot Pro said. I took the Lamisil for three months... nothing. I took the Sporanox for three months...nothing. I used the Lamisil cream for 9 months... nothing. I even tried the vinegar like breathoffreshair suggested and that didn't work for me.

Just today we (my podiatrist and I) removed one of the two nails). In a month, we will remove the other one. So I wish you more luck than I have had.
