Guest guest Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I have pain in my upper teeth, swollen eyes, and pain in my head. I also have dry, itchy eyes. I have tried nasal sprays and antibiotics. They do help for a short while and then the sinusitis returns. I have finally put together that the mask I wear, and the airways being forced with air from my bi-cap, is the cause. Does anyone have any suggestions how to take care of this problem so it won't keep returning? I do have to keep using the bi-pap to help me breathe. Thank you for your help!

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I've had to give up wheat. When I have a sinusitus attack I usually do 2000mg Echinacea, 2000 mg Goldenseal Root and 5000 mg Garlic 4 times a day for 5 days. I take 1000 mg niacin and 1000 mg tumeric twice a day during allergy season and usually that keeps the sinusitus attacks to a minimum in addition to my 2 table spoons of lecithin and fish oil tablets and yogurt tofu and berries for breakfast. No wheat or fried foods. If I follow that diet my breathing gets normal and of course I start to cheat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Do you have a humidifier for your bi-pap? If not try one. Are the nasal sprays OTC? Only use them occasionally. They can have a bad rebound effect making it worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
