hi betty.pills are most definitley not the answer...it would be nice if there was a pill to cure all ailments...there just isnt!.. there is no miracle pill.and you dont know what is in it or what its doing either..so scratch that pill theory..because when u take that pill..it goes through your blood..your system...with no guaranteed results...god knows what else its affecting.
logically...fungal infection though,relates to your nails..and just your toe nails also.... as there is no fungal infection regarding fingernails....so,...
isolating the problem with whatever toes are causing problems..and that then stops the infection spreading...

I had a mild case of toe nail fungus and I went on line and did a few different things to combat it. If you have toe nail fungus,usually you have yeast over growth in your body. Anyway, I scrubed my toe nails with bleach a few times. Then went on line to a vitamin store and bought three different treatmnts for toe nail fungus. The one thing I used 2-3 times a day was nail repair tea tree oil and I bought oreagano oil caps and opened one of themand put the oil in the nail repair. It worked really well. I have been able to keep it under control. I use this 1 -2 times everyday! I apply it after every shower.

hi..when treating a funal infection its so important to continue treatment several months or more afterwards even if its seems the problem has gone away..and i see that  you have tried so many options... but continuous treatment is of utmost importance to make sure all dormant fungal infection is treated also.
i wish i could be of more help..maybe finding a simple treatment that works,persevereing and if u see small improvements continue with that treatment...but keep with it,it is a long process but with a fungal infection it is probably the only option best of luck to  you
