Although I am not sure if your doctor has more in mind or not, the Neti Pot is great. I have allergy induced asthma, and hate to take meds year around when I already take so much with my meds for my TM, so I only take my asthma stuff when needed. I am a proud Neti Pot user, and actually have gotten many to use it as well. We get a lot of pollen from our oak tree, and it seems to sit in my nose and throat and work it's way up into my sinuses. The Neti works so well, and you get some immediate relief. Even with a sinus infection, you get some relief right away. I don't know of any medication that will give you that. I highly recommend it, and hope it'll help you.

The ENT put me on Prednisone and an antibiotic. It cleared up, but this summer I am having a lot of problems again. I am back on the same regimen again. My family Doc said something about getting the sinuses irrigated. I had some tests done last week and am waiting to hear from him. I get worried because I was having a lot of sinus problems when I first got hit with TM 6 years ago. Over 5 years my sinuses were fine, now all of a sudden here I go again. I need to find out why. Just a little frustrated. Linda in Pa Psssst...Have you heard the news? There's a new fashion blog, plus the latest fall trends and hair styles at StyleList.com.
