Hi, I am on Sprycel, and am allowed to take MusinexD for conjestion from sinus,

and I was also prescribed Nasonex, a nasal spray, both worked wonders, but I did

not have the headache. Bobby

Hi Tammy,

I take Sudafed for my sinuses... recommended by my cardiologist as being the

least to interact with my other meds. My onc knows that I take it and has no

objections. Tylenol is out. Try a saline based nasal spray, it helps. I have

barosinusitis... my sinuses object to the rising and falling of the barometer,

so this is year-around. Another thing I do is warm packs wherever my sinuses

hurt... seems to help drain them and just feels wonderful. Hope this helps!

Take care,

Zazzy

Dear Tammy

No I do not have suggestions for a medication to take for a sinus problem

but I do know of something that may help you. It is called " Sinu Cleanse "

It is a little genie shaped pot that you fill with saline solution that

comes with it. (I do this in the shower) you pour the solution from the

" neti pot " into one nostril and allow it to come out the other. I know this

sounds gross but I learned about it from Dr. OZ on the Oprah show. I use it

when I have a cold and both my sons use it because they have allergies. It

washes cleans your sinus's and is all natural and safe. Try it and you will

see how great it is. It could give you some relief.

You maybe already know about this and have tried it but I wanted to be sure.

Good luck and take care

Sharon
