Review in Progress, Little Effect After 5 Months. UPDATED in Review and Comments
I started using the Fungi-Nail solution shortly after my first order on 5/1/2013. A lot of the reviews mention dramatic results. Given the vast differences in human constitution, I'm not disputing these reviews. I have used Fungi-Nail religiously for 5 months, including regularly shaving down the nail to maximize exposure of the nail bed. I personally have not noticed any hugely discernible differences using Fungi-Nail. A slight improvement at best using only this solution. The name is indeed misleading, as mentioned in other reviews, and it does state is does not work on nails. On 7/2/2013, I visited my dermatologist. I cannot take Lamisil. She recommended using a solution of ½ original flavor Listerine, ½ distilled white vinegar directly after showering and letting it dry on the nail and surrounding tissue. She said to wear open toed shoes and no polish. She said it could take a year for a new nail to grow back healthy. She further explained that the deformed nail is the fungus' opportunistic effect on healthy tissue. (I knew this...) I'm still using the Fungi-Nail solution several hours after the Listerine/vinegar application, once a day. I'm seeing better results since using the Listerine/vinegar solution. We'll see how my toe looks next May... UPDATE 7/18/2014: I stopped using the Fungi Nail solution in July 2013. For the last year, I have been using only a solution of ½ original flavor Listerine, ½ distilled white vinegar directly after showering and letting it dry on the nail and surrounding tissue. I stuck to this regiment religiously for a full year. I removed and filed down the damaged nail regularly. Additionally, I stopped wearing toenail polish and wore open-toed shoes whenever possible. My nail is now almost fully healed and grown back in normally. Only a very small edge of damaged nail needs to finish growing out. MORE UPDATES: For more info, please read through the comments.
