I get seasonal allergies, especially in the spring and autumn. I love my oak forest, but I think I may be allergic to those beautiful trees. Over the years I seem to have developed a penchant for sinusitis. I feel like one side of my nose is plugged up most of the time
I take Zyrtec, perform a daily nasal rinse, and walk most days. I am just finishing a dose of zythromycin (sp?) - that one you take for 5 days. I feel a bit better, but that one nostril still has intermittent pain. I don't want to become resistant to antibiotics, yet I want to feel better! The doctor has ordered a CT scan, which may pinpoint the problem - she said, "I have to check whether insurance will cover it."
Question: how do you maintain your healthy sinuses? Diet, herbs, more exercise, etc. If zythromycin isn't working any more, then what? Should I just stay in bed 'til I feel better? I need to get and stay robustly healthy! I really am not much of a complainer, but I would really appreciate some input. Many thanks for your consideration.
