Well ...my sinuses are killing me.
I have self diagnosed myself with anything from a brain infection, that will lead to systematic organ failure..... to rare, but deadly, worms in my sinuses.
Last night, as I was snorting and making pig like noises....while squirting Afrin up my right nostril, my Assistant says to me...."Ok it is time for us to do something."
He goes to the kitchen cabinet where we stash all the aspirin, Tylenol....outdated meds and weird stuff.
He takes out a bottle of Prednisone tablets (prob from another sinus issue) ....He says "Two left....what do you think?"
I swallow them.
He says, "Here's a Benadryl sinus".
"Give it to me!" I replied.
I go take a hot bath, as told.
We change all the sheets.
He sprays them down with Lysol...just for good measure.
I am coming out of the bathroom ....and he is waiting with his Powder Scented Lysol can.
He sprays the doorway...and says "Walk through it and breath in.".....Being miserable, I do as instructed.
I settle under my electric blanket ...and take a swig of Nyquil, as instructed....just for good measure.
He smears Vicks under my nose and on my throat....
I put three pillows behind me, grasp my remote, turn on Bio Celebrity Ghost Stories.....and drift off to sleep.
I slept like a baby....I woke up at 3am...only to find that my eyes had crusted shut....with dried drainage....I wiped it away in my fog..... and went back to sleep....
Anyhoo....I woke up today feeling at least 50% better . No more pressure....Not as much gooky stuff.
My doctor is the best.

The only thing you left out is a Sinus Rinse. Have your Doctor run to the local drugstore and get one. They are called "Sinus Rinse" (not neti-pot) and they force those sinuses clean! Love mine.
You are spoilt btw.

Oh I hope you feel better it sounds very painful.
I was thinking the same as Miss Bee Lady :)
Feel better soon
Ditch the afrin. That crap is going to melt a hole in your honker.
Mel V. is preaching the TRUTH!!!
