Guest guest Posted December 25, 2002 Report Share Posted December 25, 2002 >Fungal sinusitis is definitely an issue for him. He also always has an intermittent cough. Don't know what that is about. Judy Judy, I'll bet his cough is always worse in the morning!! Why? Anatomically, due the shape--sort of like a soup bowl, open at the top--and position of the Maxillary sinus, they fill up with the ..... politely said.... " waste products and debris " produced by the fungus during the day....when you lay down to sleep, or lean over, the soup bowls empty and drain into the throat while you sleep. Imagine the irritation that causes!! When you wake up, throat is sore and you want to cough that " debris " up, and your throat is sore, then once you're upright, and the saliva begins to wash away the debris, the irritated condition resolves temporarily. If he consumes: any GRAINS (other than Millet) or by products of any grains; any milk or milk by-products; any chocolate; or any other know mucous producing foods---ELIMINATE THEM immediately, permanently for at least ONE YEAR....he'll benefit from the results. To help create an environment that the fungus don't like and to dramatically reduce their population...a nasal douche with strong salt water will really help to flush them out...you can use a Neti Pot, available at better health food stores, or do it yourself with about 1-2 TBS SeaSalt in cup of warm water...stir well until completely dissolved, then pour some into hand, lean way over, (don't do this standing upright), put both nostrils into the solution, sniff rapidly in thru your nose and cough out thru your mouth the water and the most disgusting looking debris....do this several times each morning on arising, and follow with the remaining solution as a gargle... Just seeing what comes out, will motivate you discontinue the banquet of the above listed things.... Dolphi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also causes coughing, sore throat, upset stomach, etc. At the very first sign of this type of headache, I put 4-5 drops GSE into an inch of water and drink it. I do it again every hour, until the headache is gone, generally 3 hours. If I don't catch it soon enough, I will have a raging headache that will last for three days, even if I overdose on pain killer or other remedies. Nothing will help, except GSE at the first sign of it. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It nebulizes the antibiotic or antifungal into the nasal cavaties. The sinuspharmacy.com is a compounding pharmacy that compounds it into particle size so it can be absorbed. So far it is working well, we are on day 5.The only down side is like an asthma nebulizer it takes around 12 minutes of getting the kid to sit still. Sure beats the side effects of the oral antibiotics that were just causing gut problems for us.......Ann > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
