sinus infection

by brave72, Dec 17, 2007 09:10PM
I have been diagnosed with a sinus infection.  I have always considered myself a light sleeper.  However, my sleeping problem turned into something that I never experienced before.  I started waking myself up before falling into a deep sleep by making weird noises that I couldn't duplicate while I was awake.  I started getting really anxious and nervous and depressed.  I made an appointment for a sleep study and had one done.  I did show that I suffer from sleep apnea.  Can the reason why my sleeping problem went to a whole new level is because of the sinus infection?  I went to an ENR doctor and he diagnosed me with a deviated septum and a sinus infection.  He put me on antibiotics for two weeks and it didn't seem to help.  He changed prescriptions and I think it may be improving.  However, I continue to have panic attacks/uneasiness/anxiety which leads to depressive thoughts.  Can all this be attributed to the sinus infection?  I hope so and that I can kick its butt soon because living this way is a lot of bull!  Any help????
