OK, I'm sure that because I'm so desperate for a cure I'm convincing
myself of something but I'm going to enjoy it for now.

ASTELIN RULES!!!  For the past 7 weeks I've been trying to shake this
infection (although it may not really be an infection...just a
horrible feeling nose for lack of a better word).  I irrigate 2/3
times a day, apply Breathe-Ease nasal gel and spray my nose with the
Breathe-Ease mist a million times a day.  Sure, this gave me some
temporary relief but.....my congestion comes and goes, my nose feels
dry, irritated and crappy.

Yesterday, I took a shot of Astelin in the morning.  I felt great for
5 hours!! This was a record considering for the past 7 weeks 1-2 hours
was my longest.  I took another shot last night and slept like a baby.
This AM, I took another shot and believe it or not

1- My nose is no longer dry!  How can this be?  How the hell can
Astelin make my nose less dry???

2- I feel no congestion.

3- I am not dizzy anymore

4- I am not getting hot to the point where I have to run outside into
the cold air to breathe.

I sprayed my nose with Breathe Ease mix once today (I usually would
have sprayed 10 times by now).  I didn't irrigate either.

So what do you folks think.  Is it possible that this is the best
thing out there for Rhinitis?  It's an antihistamine and I don't have
allergies (I've been tested 3+ times by different Dr.s).  What the
heck is going on??

My track record indicates that this will work for a day or two then
I'll be miserable again but I thought I'd post to encourage others to
give this a whirl.  I'll keep my fingers crossed though :)
