I am finding amazing natural cures and the ones I have tried really work - on www.earthclinic.com

I did a while back checkout sinus and inflammation - I don't remember what I read - but it may not hurt to take a look

Oh!  I know this one!!  LOL!!
It's not fun and YES, it's scarey as all get out because us thyroid peeps have to be extra careful what we take.
There is a nasal spray called "XLear" and you'll find it in most drug stores or in health food stores.  Just blow your nose good and then spray 2 squirts morning and night up your nose and sniff it in good.  It's natural stuff and it has Xylitol in it... which germs can't handle at all.  You will be AMAZED at how clear your sinuses will be!!
You can also do the nasal washes, but this stuff works even better I think.
Best wishes!

Xylitol is not an antibiotic. It isn't a sinus medicine. It's an artificial sweetener used in gum and candy.
