support group meeting in Tampa

[Bee]

Sadsack, Would it be a good idea to suggest at the meeting, us Florida morgies contact our Local Health Depts during the same week sometime soon ? I think that's what were supposed to do when drs can't help,turn to the County Health Depts. They report to the CDC.

Thanks, tcm!

The first soap is Pidifix's "Funga Soap", which you rub a few drops into the skin.
The next is Endure 300, which is applied on top of the area where the Funga Soap was rubbed in.

Both are sold many places on the internet, but here are a couple of cheaper sites:

Endure:
Medical Supplies, Surgical Supplies, Medical Equipment

Funga Soap:
Foot Care Products

You really have to shop around; it can cost almost double if you go to the wrong site.

Needless to say, Dr. S did not develop these products; they have been around for a very long time. I even remember seeing Funga Soap advertised in the AARP Newsletter!

That's a good suggestion. We actually had a doctor from the state health dept at one of the first meetings....he was GREAT! But he did it on his own time, not as a representative of the health dept. In fact, he never mentioned it when he spoke.

I may have asked you this before, but are you near enough to us to come??

Just thought I would mention that I was able to order Pedafix funga soap through my local Walgreens as a special order. It was awhile ago, but at that time the price was about what SS's site advertises and there was no shipping charge.

Yes - I remember seeing Walgreens as a source recently.

I'm way over on the east coast, at least 4 hrs away. I might find a way to get there, but not this time.
I have been wanting to talk to someone at the county health dept, but I don't want to be the only one. Plus my husband is against me talking about this. He says I sound stupid and paranoid and that nobody will believe me.
I really want to talk to my dog vet and horse vet. Problem is, I did talk to my horse farrior, now he schedules to do the horses feet when I can't be there.
So I'm leary.

Thanks SS! I just ordered some of Trisha Springstead's soap, too. I will try my best to be there

I will bring 2 types of soaps from ESP (Trisha) the new hope and her new sulfur soap! Her soaps saved my skin!

Just received confirmation this afternoon that a veterinarian from the University of Florida, and a neuropsychologist will be in attendance. Both of these people are very interested in our plight....

Toward the end of the meeting, we will have a conference call with the lead author of one one of the studies we will be reviewing.

This is a VERY special meeting. I truly hope that everyone who CAN make it, will.

Thanks,
SS
