I have yet another sinus infection.  That means ANOTHER antibiotic.  I took one today and already my stomach is a mess.  I dislike taking them but I am at the end of my rope with these sinuses this winter. 

If anyone has any suggetions please help.

I use the neti pot and we are a smoke free home with no new pets/bedding/furniture/etc.  My new docto feels that the two antibiotics I had in November and March never really kicked the infection out all the way and it just multiplied again.  She also thinks I may have a cold with this one as I am feverish, chilled, achey, and downright miserable.

Bun didn't even do any school today as my head was throbbing that much.  She could have read and practiced her handwriting etc, but I really coudln't move off of the bed after I got home from the doctor this morning.  She was a little trooper though, she made her own lunch of a sandwhich and made herself chocolate milk.

I just want to feel better before vacation.

I can't believe you are ill again, poor thing!! OK. This is going to sound extreme and a bit nasty, but it was suggested by a friend of mine who follows alot of natural remedies. I tried it with a cold I have been fighting for three weeks and I have managed to keep going and avoid the dreaded antibiotics so far and now I'm really on the mend.

The remedy to is take a spoonful of raw, crushed garlic - straight!! I took one in the morning and one in the evening everyday for two weeks and it was amazing that an hour after I had taken it I felt TONS better!! I did have to drink alot of water to wash it down with and I always followed it with a spoonful of honey - which soothed my throat and took the burning out of my mouth. You know....'a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down'. I'll spare you my singing!! LOL!

Hope you feel better soon and are on top form for the holiday!!!

Grapefruit seed extract taken 3 times a day does wonders! It works as an antibiotic without all of the nastier side effects. It also is an anti-fungal to help clear up any yeast that may have been caused BY the antibiotics and that can actually cause certain other ailments. I don't know if sinus infectons can be caused by yeast, but trust me when I say that the grapefruit seed extract (try the pill form rather than the liquid) can cure just about anything!

Good luck!
