Title: Sinus Infections
Post by Mark C on May 19^th, 2003, 12:12pm

I have been pretty sick for the last ten days or so....another damn sinus infection. This is the third one since last August. Before that I had never had a sinus infection in my life. Massive quantites of antibiotics should clear it up again.

I am just wondering why after all these years am I suddenly getting these infections? I dont know why....I just know it hurts and makes me sick.

Bummer Mark. The last one I had was about 6 years ago and that little bugger needed three different antibiotics to kill it. By the time the docs got to the 3rd one, I thought I was about to die. (Actually, they were just about to admit me to the hospital because they were worried about meningitis)

Oh well, stay strong and here's hopin you shake it soon.

Take care

Sinus infections are miserable Mark, hope the anibiotics kick in soon for you.

Tried to find you a nice gif, but I'm still on slow ass dial-up for another week or so.

Hugs,
Tracey

At least (I hope) you're not on the road traveling. I got caught in Charlotte a couple of years ago without access to the regular GP. ER doc gave me some stuff that literally made me foam at the mouth each time I took a pill. The only thing worse would be sinusitis in the midst of a cluster episode.

Sorry you're feeling terrible. Those sinus infections can be a real pain in the ass. I'm just getting over my first one of the season - horribly bad allergies give them to me at least 3 times a year - ICK! Drink lots of water and get as much rest as you can.

hoping you'll feel better soon

Really I didn't realise you got pain there too!........... but seriously Im sorry that your having to cope with this too......have you been on steroids recently, just a thought as this can lead to a lowered immune system, ....maybe you've got yourself run down....either way sending you a hug to make you feel better.

Cathy :)
