Re: sinuses & alcoholic beverage question

[Guest guest]

Hi All-

The suggestion of rum with the cranberry juice sounds great.?

Since I started Xolair, I havent been able to even have my one weekly beer.? I

got dizzy from just a few sips.? I figured it was because of the Xolair and so I

stopped any alcohol.

Have any of you noticed that alcohol affects you differently since taking the

shots?

Hot cranberry juice with rum in it. Just heat the juice in the microwave like a

cup of coffee and add a shot of rum. It's very soothing.

Also, vibration on the sinus areas really helps speed things along. I have a

novelty pen that vibrates when pressed to something. My pulmo thought it was

really funny when I showed it to her. I swear it works.

Sip enough spiked cranberry juice and you won't care that your family thinks

you're weird for vibrating your face!

Good luck and wishes for a speedy recovery.

PS My husband says that super spicey food is the way to go.

No I haven't had a problem with that. I can't have a drink if I've taken a

really strong pain killer. But I'm not a big drinker anyway, so it's no big

deal.

I did have a problem a couple weeks ago. My friend had never had a coffee

correcto and wanted me to make her one. I said, " Sure I'll have one with you " ,

forgeting that I'd just started a new pain killer (Tramadol). Bad mistake!! I

felt like I was going to die for about twenty minutes. It wasn't a queasy

feeling, like one could expect. I just felt really really WRONG.

Yes, I know, that story could have ended much worse. I won't forget again.
