It was hard to get in to see the doctor, because of my own schedule. He says I have a sinus infection, and wrote two prescriptions for me. I got them filled last night, and I already feel much better. While there, I asked some other questions I have, and I feel very satisfied with the visit.

I too have sinus infection as well as fluid on my ears. I have had it for over two weeks. the first meds they put me on did not work so they had to put me on a stronger one. I hope this one works. I hope you are feeling better now.

Not totally cured, but better. I took maximum dosage on the antihistamines the other day, and I was falling asleep at work!! I called in on the second job that day.

I hope you get to feeling better, too. The z pack seems to have worked this time. I will get extra rest over Christmas break.

I am glad you are feeling some better. When it comes to sinus problems any relief is a welcome one. :)

Sinus infection is what usually gets me, if anything. I really benefit from good nutrition and adequate sleep, when I get it. I would love to drop the extra hours, but I would need to replace about $600 per month.

I used to get sinus infections quite a bit and I remember how painful they are. It's such a relief when you get the meds you need for it and it starts to clear up. I know you know this, but don't stop taking the meds just because you are feeling better, take the entire dosage to make sure it doesn't come right back.
I haven't had a sinus infection (or a cold really) for the last year. I started a new vitamin regimen and it's been great for my health. It was kinda wierd because I didn't think about it really, until I saw your post and realized that I didn't get a sinus infection this fall (the usual time I get them). It looks like that's behind me now!! WOOHOO!!!
Take care!

Definitely back to taking vitamins religiously for me. I think I was someplace where I got heavily exposed to stale smoke, and I have been not taking my vitamins, so I was prime target for infection.

i suffer sinus infection for many years before. i took many prescription but it heals just for several days only. lucky i recovered now. the secret is I take vitamin c almost everyday. i believe vit c increase my body's ability to cope with infection. you can try my way if you want..

When I am taking vitamins I do take extra C, I just got too busy to take the time to count out my vitamins. I am back to taking them, and things should get better.
