Are you sure it's a fungus and not scale?
No matter which it is, wouldn't a stem taken to the local nursey
get the proper fungiside/insecticide to treat the problem?

Not necessarily. The local nursery could be a Lowe's or Wal*Mart.
Remember, the OP is in Tennessee.
There is a guy in the nursery at the Lowe's near me that is very
knowledgeable, although I know that's not always the case. There is a
private nursery across the highway from them that doesn't have anyone
that knows squat.

amber i dont know if this is going to help any but could it be that your forsythia has crown gall growing on the branch areas and that its not a fungus at all.
maybe take a peek here and see if this is what it is
