    Sinus Rinse

    How often and when do you do your sinus rinse? I usually do mine at night when I have a shower. Im starting to find that my ears and throat are becoming irritated since I sleep shortly afterward. Do you drain your sinuses after you do your rinse? How is this supposed to work?

    Hi, I don't look up drug side effects because I don't like to subconsciously talk myself into experiencing them. I just finished a 14 day course of meropenem and ceftazidime. The front of my legs/shins are killing me!! Has anyone experienced this after these antibiotics?
