” With “never drainage/congestion/fever” and “never gets congestion, sneezing, post-nasal drip, etc” and a borderline normal CT scan, the evidence for chronic sinusitis is scant. The American Academy of Otolaryngology (ENT) classifies sinus symptoms as follows: Major: Facial pressure, congestion, nasal obstruction, a runny nose and a reduced sense of smell. And, Minor: Headache, fever, halitosis, fatigue, dental pain, cough and ear pain.
Hi mandykitkat,
Me too I was put on Diflucan and started bleeding three days after even though my period is not due for another week or so. The bleeding was light for the first week and very heavy for the last two weeks. I went to see an OBGYN and she took a simple and blood work...I have very painful and tender womb now still bleeding and awaiting the lab results. Please any advice is greatly appreciated.
never been on pumps/inhalers never used inhaled corticosteroids but have used antibiotics almost consistently every time i have a chest infection doctors prescribed antibiotics this time as well as well as a corticosteroid nasal spray which i used for the first time but only once and discontinued as it improved my symptoms with a single dose also fexofenadine and montelukast, unicontin e (a methyl xanthine drug bronchodilator) after the pollen season peaked symptoms usually subside and i am vir
was found during my annual) and my dr (who is new and i do not normally see) prescribed me diflucan for 12 weeks, one pill, once a week. I have never heard of this or treated a yeast infection with diflucan like this before and am starting to think this doctor I saw was a quack/slave to drug company kind of doctor. Has anyone ever been prescribed diflucan this way?
I was wondering where the best place for me would be to find a complete list of medicines I should stay away from with Long QT syndrome. I have a list but it is over 5 years old, and I am in need of a new one! Thank You!
I am currently being treated with Diflucan and Cipro for an existing yeast problem. I am taking Diflucan for 30 days and Cipro for 10 days. This will give me some relief for about three or four months and then I will need to treat the problem again. Questions: Should I change the Diflucan/Cipro time schedule or try different drugs? Any other suggestion would be very much appreciated. I should note that I take enzymes with each meal (Digest Gold and Fenol) Thanks for any help, Sam.
You really should be using a steroid nasal spray for you excessive mucous production for your sinuses. Antibiotics help acute sinusitis infections. I often do saline irrigations of my sinuses, that helps remove the excess mucous that is in the sinuses. Also gets rid of infected material. These irrigations should be done twice a day. I've also noticed that when you have excess lung mucous you will feel it rattling around deep in your lungs before it makes it's way up.
I've had a persistent yeast infection almost every month for nearly 3 years. I've had it tested over 5 times so I know it's candida with certainty. Diflucan sometimes helps for a short while, most of the time not at all. I'm trying it once more and thought maybe trying the miconazole suppositories a few days after the Diflucan may help. What's your opinion on this idea? Does anyone have any advice on recurrent yeast infections?
All three times I, as well as my female partner have tested negative for all STDs. The urologist said to try diflucan first to see if it is a yeast infection, then if the symptoms persisted, take medication for possible trichomoniasis infection. If that didn't work then he would have to do a visual inspection with a camera scope. I took a test for trichomoniasis (urine NAA test) and that came back negative as well.
good afternoon, Please help for the last 3 weeks I have had Sinusitis, this has been diagnosed by my doctor
4 weeks ago I had a flu virus, I have read that often you can have sinus problems after another virus
A week after the flu I travelled abrad by plane, this can also effect your sinuses
My sinus symptoms have been strange, usualy i have a blocked nose, but this time I have had a congested ears head and cheeks, even my jaw aches, But I havent had a blocked nose, I have had a sore throat a
i have this some sort of colds for about 2 months now and now sometimes i feel weak and fatigue, i have this cold mucus that doesnt come out and i feel sometimes stumbling or out of balance, and some dizziness and nausea.. is this sinusitis infection or ear infection.i have no fever...
I have had sinusitis for one month (out of work) and have been on antibiotics, netipot, steroid spray from ENT which did not help at all..
. Last week, through a throat culture from my G.P., I came up positive for strep. I am currently taking sulfamthoxazole-tmp (am allergic to penicillan) for ten days and seem to be doing better.
It is the last resort before surgery. Try it for 2 weeks, then stop for 3 weeks. If your problem has not begun to subside, then indeed consider surgery.

The Flip-Turn Sinus Flush is mildly risky, because you have to bend over to do it, preferably in a shower, but you can also do it outside on soft ground, or you can kneel down and lean over a bathtub, or perhaps a plastic basin or tub, with the shower running for steam.
I had cold 5 years ago and it laster for a month later on the ENT doctor told me it is sinusitis and then sinusitis is gone and i was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. The mistery is that since I had the cold for 3 weeks until I ha've had the the allergy I ha've had brain fog. I think the main cause is the congestion/inflammation, i've been feeling nasal congested 24/7 for 5 years.
