Guest guest Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Hi Gaylen, I am following up with you on this. My Allergist said he worked with the study at the Mayo Clinic on Fungal Sinusitis. He said he saw incidence of it, but he feels the best treatment for any sinus issues is the conservative approach.....saline rinsings 2-3 times a day for a few months. If this does not help he does prescribe an antifungal spray, but like in my case it was not necessary. The saline did the trick. I feel like I need to do this with my son, but have no idea how I am going to get a 7 year old to rinse his sinus 2-3 times a day!!! > > In a message dated 3/9/2007 7:18:36 AM Central Standard Time, > meljackmom@... writes: > > <<My son also came up with sinus symptoms the same time, which I wondered was > fungal, not allery, not bacterial.
