I have had a sinus infection and I finished the last of my antibiotic today, and it still doesn't look like my nose is clearing up. I absolutely do not want to do another round of antibiotics and I have taken so many Mucinex. I can definitely tell that I am better, however something has made me feel totally worn out with no energy at all. Last year I started w/ chronic sinus infections and this has been the worst one yet.
Do any of you suffer with this? I am open to any helpful suggestions. The Dr. has suggested allergy testing. What do you think? I need to get to feeling better soon. Let me hear what has worked for you. Hope you all have had a wonderful Memorial Day and looking forward to a great week! Jackie

I would definitely figure out the allergy aspect. I hope you feel better soon. Sinus infections and headaches are awful!
Hi Jackie~ Everyone around here is feeling the same way... Sorry you're sick - hope you feel better soon!
Hi Jackie, you may get more info from me on this subject than you would like! I used to suffer from allergy and sinus problems for years. I even got allergy shots for 9 years! My life was changed by nasal rinsing with the neti pot. All it involves is rinsing out your nose with warm water mixed with salt (saline solution). I do it once a day or 2x in allergy season. When I have a cold or the flu, it helps me get over it in 1-2 days. I don't take anymore OTC meds for allergies, not even prescription meds. I love that rinsing is all natural and prevents sinus headaches and infections. Let me know if there's anything else you want to know!~Sherri
