Has anyone else tried this?...

Hello everyone,
My heart goes out to all of you who suffer with the same problem as I do- a really bad smell coming from my nose. I have had this for as long as I can remember and I am now in my 30s so thats a long time. Ive had antibiotics, xrays and had given up on the medical profession altogether, I was basically told the problem was in my head. I have very little friends because of my problem, I was bullied at school because of it.
What I wanted to say was that I think I have found a cure for it!! It's early days yet but I've noticed a REAL improvement! I've been using a saline nasal irrigator for a bit but got a bit lazy and only used it every now and again because it only helped a little. I read on your forum that it could be a fungal problem so instead of oil of oregano I used tea tree oil which is also a natural anti-fungal and anti-septic. I add 2 to 3 drops in the saline solution before I rinse and I have done this twice a day for a week now. It's early days but I cannot smell the poopy smell any more and my breath now smells lovely for the first time in my life!!!
Its worth a try, let me know how you get on.

I am glad that something is working for you. I personally do saline irrigations to my sinuses as well. I want to use the Neti pot, I have heard wonderful things about it. You are right that fungal infections can make things smell bad...did they ever culture your sinuses by any chance? If it was fungal all along, then those antibiotics would not have helped you, probably even might have made the fungus bloom even more.
I have heard many good things about oil of oregano, I know of one person who nebulizes the stuff (people, don't do this without your doctor's blessing!) and swears by it.
Good luck, Sunny

Recently, I do nasal irrigation with 10% Glucose Solution. That makes things become significantly better. However, I still have a smoke like smell coming from my nose. My question is what did Glucose do with fungal or something like that.
PS: Before Glucose Solution, I tried saline. From my experience, Glucose is better.
I don't know if it can be cured in this way. But try it.

Best

Fluff242, how is your treatment going? Did it result in permanent results? I'm currently trying teat tree oil. I will let you know if it works and results in permanent results.
