I've been having sinus problems since 9/1.

It seems to just ping-pong from sinus area to sore throat to bronchitis.

Amoxicillan (10 days in Sept) took care of bronchitis but still having
sinus/throat/tonsilitis type problems. No fever but feeling totallyworn
out/fatigued.

Was going to do avelox but did not when chest x-ray and sinus x-rays came
back normal.

(Does this mean there is no infection per se?????)

Nasonex might be working. Not sure yet.

Have doc. appointment on Monday. Not sure what result will be. If we go
antibiotic route, I'm thinking of suggesting zithromax (afraid of the
quinilones; hesitant to go with avelox big gun)

Any thoughts??/Advice??

Hi Mel,
I saw your previous post and decided to see what others suggested.
I'm betting the sore throat and bronchitis is coming from sinus drip.
For the first time since knowing her (long time friend), I took her advice
and tried Tylenol. Extra Strength, Sinus /Sleep formula. (after trying
various antibiotics).
I took the Tylenol /Sinus for 3 days, twice /day.  Then I waited a week to
see and it went away.
That was April. I've been fine since then, but it's restarting.  So I might
do it again.

Worth a try for you?  Check the labels and your doctor, because I forget the
warnings on it.
And yuor doctor knows best.

Have you tried an antihistimine?

make sure that you are taking daily suppliments and getting all of the
vidimins you need, this can help your body fight off something on it's
own.
