Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Sinusitis / April 2005Need a good sinus doc on or near Long Island, NY
My chronic sinusitis has reached a new level of severity and tenacity, and it's triggering pretty severe asthma, which I don't have otherwise. It's been frustrating trying to convince my allergist that 2 weeks of Augmentin XR is the charm, and a recent CT scan, right after antibiotics, was read as negative. I'm experiencing adverse reactions to Advair and Singulair, and am hoping to find a doc who will treat the underlying trigger infection. I didn't find any referrals on the link in this group's FAQ. Thanks, Susan > x-no-archive: yes > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Augmentin XR is the charm, and a recent CT scan, right after > antibiotics, was read as negative. Should read "2 weeks of Augmentin XR is NOT the charm." Susan Have you tried Dr. Tichenor, who frequently responds on this site? I'm not sure how close he is to you, but he in in New York, I think. Good look. Kathyw > Have you tried Dr. Tichenor, who frequently responds on this site?

I guess you could call information. DOHHHHH, I didn't see one. I'll go look again. I even looked him up on switchboard.com and they said it was unlisted. I have ADD, so I often miss what's right in front of my face.

I don't know, Murray (This is SuFein, BTW), but if I take it, I feel head pressure and tense, and my diastolic goes over 100 each time. If I don't take it, it's back down. I stopped both it and Advair, added back one at at time. I'm okay with the Advair, it's not even raising my blood glucose or pressure that I can see. The BP problem with the Singulair has been reproducible. If you read the reviews on askapatient.com, you'll see that irritability and mood disturbance are quite common with Singulair, dramatically so, in some cases. Susan |
