Sinus Infections Sinusitise

[FiLtH]

Ive had bad allergies most of my adult life. Sinus pressure is a daily thing for me. Once in awhile it turns into an infection. Do you have pets? Is there mold in your house? Those effect me the most. What works best for me is staying hydrated. I mean super hydrated. Drink alot of water. Alot. Winter is a bad time for me. I used to have alot of nosebleeds as a kid from drying out.

  My brother had bad problems as a teen. He ended up on a nose spray that smelled like lilacs. Nasacort I believe. He used it for a few months and one day he staying blowing this black goo out his nose. Lots of it. Finally it cleared up and he was better. Gross I know, but thats what it was.

Years ago I had a wicked sinus infection, lasted for weeks.  Finally went to the DR and she squirted some anti-biotics up my nose like one of those over-the-counter dristan sprays.

On my way home my sinuses drained into my mouth...in one go.  I had to pull over and spit it out....almost made me throw up.

But talk about instant relief.

Never been able to find out what that stuff was.

Years later I met a guy who used to walk his dog in the same park.  One day I had a cold and my sinuses were hurting like heck.  I see the guy I met coming towards me but he looked different, even from a distance.  When he got up close I couldn't believe it....his eyebrows were totally swollen up as was the area just under his eyes.  He looked like a freak.  Seriously.  Before I could say anything he just said "I have really bad sinuses".

Since then I don't think my problem is that bad at all.

OOOPS according to what I'm reading that is IONIC Silver not Colloidal  Silver while they are similar they are not the same thing?

And Ionic if I'm reading this right is the one that it is easiest to get SMURF skin from?

I went to an allergy specialist about my problem and did all the normal testing. From those tests no allergies were evident but we later discovered what caused my sinus problem and what will continue to do, it is Aspirin Syndrome Asthma.
It seems I have had this for awhile but never knew it, so all those years of stress at work and little or no sleep then popping aspirin to get rid of the headache were making my problem worse not better. Obviously when the doctor first told me about this I thought "what a jerk this guy is", but then soon after I had a toothache and took some ibuprofen which cleared up the toothache but about 3 hours later I could hardly breathe. Dr said if I hadn't already been on the meds I would have probably ended up in hospital because of that. Took about 30 minutes of rest before I could get up and move around but I learned my lesson and now avoid anything with aspirin content.

My Father had terrible Sinus Problems all throughout his life, to the point where Crippling Sinus Headaches would come on just by the change in Air Pressure (Storms and Such).

After I moved out to college, he went to specialist where he found out he had sinus polyps forming. He decided to take measures and one of them was removing his carpeted floors. Now he only experiences problems when around animals (Cats and Dogs).

Well, I came back from the doctor's today, and I finally tested positive for a culture of fungus in my nose.

Went to get blood drawn to ensure my liver enzymes are not too high, and if not, I start an oral anti fungal for 8 weeks.  If the enzymes are too high, than it is an IV anti fungal for four weeks.
