I didn't see much on this in the posts or maybe it's embedded in others...

Two days ago I started itching, then last night I had some burning and itching sensations. My head itches the most. Is this good? It's not awful, just all of a sudden. I also had kind of a burning pain throughout my body last night.

The only thing that has changed is that I started HC 3 weeks ago and I tried 1 pill of MSM yesterday (1000, not sure if its mcgs or mgs). But the itching started before the MSM and the burning was only last night.

I saw a post where Russ mentioned itching was good. How do you know if its good or not good itching? I think I should stop the MSM, or should I try it one more day to see if the burning comes back at night?

Thanks,
Gabriella

Gabriella... I woke up one night with a painful burning on one side of my tongue. I have heard of another person who posted (not sure if it was this forum, but I thought it was) that he felt a burning in his brain area.

In my case, I felt it was candida related and got more serious about my diet and it went away and hasn't come back.

I don't know if any way to know positively if it's good or bad itching, but if it coincides with MSM administration, it's likely good. Unfortunately, that's probably the best answer you'll be able to get because I don't think there are any specific tests for this kind of thing.

Keep us posted.

Thanks...I will continue with the MSM for a couple of days and see if I can handle it being added. I have been on the no dairy, sugar, organic diet for a while (since Dec. 06) so I feel confident it's not that. Thanks! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Good work on the diet. Let us know how you do with the MSM.
