    Sinus rinse

    I use Neilmed regular or hypertonic saline packets. Depends on my mood... lol. If you only have regular packets, you make it hypertonic by using 2 for 8 oz. of water rather than 1. My doc recommended using the hypertonic, but I don't always do it because I do nose rinses more than I do any other...

    Tune up before sinus surgery

    Every time I've had sinus surgery, I've always been on iv meds prior. Then again, I've always been sick enough to need the meds in the first place. The doc has mentioned to me though that it is protocol to do at least a week before and after surgery to make sure everything is taken care of properly!

    How many hours do you put into treatments and taking care of yourself?

    When I'm healthy, I do 1.5 hours max worth of breathing treatments a day. I also exercise a few hours a week. When I'm sick though, the ivs take considerably more time. Of course!

    joint pain

    I suffered for years with really bad joint pain. All rheumatoid arthritis tests came back inconclusive and no doctors were ever able to figure out what caused it. The only thing that ever worked for it was Prednisone.

    Sinus question

    I have never gotten a report from my ENT saying anything about sinus deterioration so I find it interesting to read your post! I have had 3 or 4 sinus surgeries, but only had polyps removed on the first one. Thankfully they have never grown back. My issue seems to be the sinuses getting filled...
