Fungal or not

I got labs in June of 2007 which is gone now except a bit of dizzness cause my ears r all messed up. Then I had sinus surgery in Sept of 2007 I have gotten much worst since then. I got a low grade fever which i still currently have, head pain on the top and back of my head. Tingling on the right side of my head and in the back also flu like symptomes, chills, tremors, foggyness in my head, I feel just plain horrible. I have had a ct before my sinus surgery and a mri after. the mri came up clean but it was for my brain not sinuses. I have been on tons and i mean tons even iv antiobotics and nothing has helped. My ent sent me to a infectious disease specialist and he doesn't know what to do for me either, so he put me on a anti fungal medicine which is kinda making me feel better except i still have my symptomes they just aren't as bad. What on earth should i do now????????? I can't live like this forever. Please help

My son has terrible sinus problems as well - has had 3 sinus surgeries. I would suggest a couple of things : get a second ENT opinion, have you tried nasal saline rinses? and submit your question to the respiratory disorder EXPERT forum which is on this same website. I did not realize that there are 2 types of forums _ expert gives you a reply from a doctor. This forum is for comments from the public. Good luck!
