Wheezing, suffocating in sleep, brain cyst, please help!

[ill13632]

I'm suffocating in my sleep with an infection and swollen throat.  I was prescribed 14 days of amoxicilin but don't know if it's a fungal infection.
I mixed 1/3 of a nelli nasal rinse bottle with hydrogen peroxide and water and rinsed and felt burning pain and fizzing from the HP and had an allergic reaction, sinus pressure, watery eyes
I've also been having nausea, vomiting, memory problems, clival brain cyst that is growing from 1.0-1.3cm in diameter on a MRI.
please help me!!! thanks!!!

Obviously, this is a very complicated history.  It is likely that you have a throat infection, that may be viral, bacterial or possibly fungal (not as likely, unless you are on other medications that might affect the immune system).    For this, I would get back to your physician who prescribed the Amoxicillin.  An examination and possibly a throat culture might be of help. Throat rinsing is fine if it makes you feel better.  It is possible that this is a sinus infection from what you have described and Amoxicillin might not work for that type of infection.  Some of the symptoms you have described can be due to the infection.  Others may be related to changes in the cyst.

Your best advice is to go back to your physician and have a thorough examination to sort out the problems.

have I been getting brain damage from a mold infection?  how does the body normally handle or kill mold that enters your nose/throat/sinuses?
my father also came down with a fungal sinus infection before he died

there is some black/green mold in my house near the refrigerator and when I rinsed I had some clear mucus come out of my nose
