I got your cure right here, California Oregano oil good luck☆
Hi PhotoGirl
I also have had Chronic Sinus problems for too many years, & 3 lots of surgery, more recent;y the diagnosis is "Chronic Sinus Disease", which doesn't really mean that much other than regular check ups with an ENT specialist.
You say Doctor, is this an ENT specialist??, & if not, I suggest you insist on a referal to see one, as they are the ones that will have a better insight into whats going on with your Sinuses.
There are other conditions which can affect or mimic sinus problems, something I'm only recently finding out about, one been Cluster Headaches, which often starts with stuffiness & swelling around sinuses & eyes, & the headache is very severe, & similar to Sinus headache, but Sinus headache will get worse of you bend over & hang your head, cluster won't, I now have DX for this too, & my ENT specialist said its amazing how easy it is missed, & confused with Sinus problems...I now have Sumiptripan to take on first signs of an attack, & it works well, Oxygen also works well, if you can get that prescribed.
I currently am also going through more tests, as looks like I also have a Thyroid disorder..........& again, I was surprised to find that a lot of the symptoms to that, also mimic Sinus disease, in that it can cause stuffiness, swelling in face eyes etc, & of course the exhaustion you mention
I agree that your stomach is likely down to too many antibiotics, , & you might want to look into systemic Candida, as this can be caused by too many antibiotic, but depends where you are in the world, as to whether or not its taken seriously medically
I personally find Cats Claw (herb) has been fantastic at sorting out IBS problems caused by antibiotics, & now always start taking 3 times a day, just before the end of my antibiotics, & it aviods stomach problems.......but took continuosly for several months in the beginning.
Also, A Neti Douche (tepid water, with a tsp of Salt & Baking soda) is a God Send with Sinus disease, really cuts down the rate of true infection, but I now use "NeilMed Sinus Rinse" which is a special bottle, & is much easier than a neti pot............ also, I once read of someone with chronic sinus infections curing it with a diluted "vinegar douche" .......this is pretty dratisc, as it is uncomfortable & burns a little, for a short while, but having done it, it really does help stop infections if you can feel or taste one coming on.
Also look up, "Histamine Rich Foods" just in case its allergy related, you can help yourself a lot, by cutting down foods on this list if exposed to other allergens, such as pollen......turned out my trigger was tomatoes,
good Luck
Thanks for taking time to help. So you don't think it's weird that a lot of the glands are swollen even though I'm not really sick with a sinus infection right now?
Hello Dear,
The enlargement of the lymph glands is due to the sinus problem.You should consult a surgeon and get them examined..You should do yoga and breathing exercises for thisi will help you.Also alternative medicines like homoeopathy would be helpful a s constant use of antibiotics weakens the body.
