Now, I have not followed the instructions exactly but it is working. I did not see the point in pouring dish soap into a dish, which itself could be contaminated, before using. I also did not clean the sink and surrounding area. I am using the soap straight from the bottle in a less than antiseptic bathroom. I did buy a new tube of Vaseline. And I scrubbed under my nails with the dish soap and a nail brush. And today my mouth corners are definitely feeling and looking better. I am going to pick up some Monostat today for insurance.
But you know what? This is kinda gross... but I think I transferred this fungus to my mouth from another part of my anatomy WHICH WILL REMAIN NAMELESS!
