Title: sinus buster
Post by trisha on Sep 14^th, 2004, 2:13pm

Hi! Well here I go again. Someone posted me back on my last post that I "seemed desperate" for something to work? Hmmm.. Aren't we all desperate? I would shove anything up my nose once if I even thought it would work. Wasn't very nice I thought but oh well.

I got the sinus buster stuff and it didn't really work. My nose burned a bit, eyes watered, still hurt. Oh well. Was worth a try for $12.

Anyone else have better luck. I read someone else's post that it will work once or twice and then not. Me too. I think "it" just adapts to whatever I try. I am getting very frustrated. Bad cycle and I am tired.

Someone else's post said "trex" was cheaper than red bull? I am assuming that is imitrex? I wish. Mine is 25 copay for 6. Must have good insurance.

Well just posting cause I'm sore today.

Aloha,

I said you seemed desperate. Understandably...
Sinus Buster is a well known "snake oil" around here. But at least it was only $12! ;)

Trex will never be cheaper than red bull...

Do you have O2?

Does the trex work?

If you can't stand the taste of the Bull, try Amp. It taste better than the Bull and when ice cold you can gulp it down, which is what you want to do. It will also take out that damn Trex NS taste.

Your wish is granted. Trex is cheaper.

Red Bull == $1.75 * 2 == $3.50 per abort (assuming you would call it an abort)

Trex == $40 copay for 16 vials (3 aborts per vial) == $0.83 per abort

Try the vials... they go further than the up-the-nose Trex. If you could get six vials and just two aborts per vial, you would be paying $2.08 per abort with your $25 copay.

Oh, and Trex works. Fast. All the time. (for most folk)

And the judges give you a 9.6 for clinical bravery, and a 3.2 for Snake Oil stupidity. Honest results are important. Glad you gave it a shot, and spoke w/o a forked tongue.

Honestly,
