Hi,

I am a 29 year old male. Only recently had an allergy test and was
allergic to dust mites and house dust. I believe I have a history of
sinus problems related to this allergy, though I never knew they were
sinus related. My sense of smell has also not been too good. I had a
bad case of post-nasal drip four/five yeras ago. I had pain above my
left eye two or so years ago as well a bleeding nose during one winter.
These were all treated with Rhinocort nasal spray.

A little over 2 months ago, I started getting getting balance and
slight vision problems as well as ear blockage discomfort. Then I had
frontal sinus infection above the eyes. I was recommended antibiotics
and nasal spray which I did not take. The infection went away but then
I started getting a slight nasal infection which resulted in congestion
in the nasal sinuses. This went away as well.

Now, the past week or so, I am constantly getting what seems like
blocked ears, mainly in my right ear. On occasions it goes away but
sometimes the pressure is very uncomfortable. I enjoy exercising
because this clears the sinuses but after one exercise session, the
pressure between my ears was very uncomfortable. I only started using
the Rhinocort nasal spray on Tuesday. I also started using the Sinus
Rinse but it says I should not use it if I feel any ear pressure. Is
this correct, should I continue using it? Will this ear pressure thing
go away?

I feel like I am constantly fighting infections since I feel hot when I
wake up in the morning. At the moment, I can fight the infections but I
can feel slight pressure in my face. I don't get a lot of mucous but it
is mostly a thick, white gooey colour. I cannot feel much mucous in my
throat that I can clear. I went to see the ENT a week and a half ago
and he simply suggested I use the Sinus Rinse and Rhinocort for two
weeks. I told him about my ear blockage but he just looked at my ears
and said  there was nothing wrong. He performed an endoscope and found
a slight deviated septum and suggested a CT scan which I think I will
need to go for.

I was wondering if the Grossan Hydro Pulse will be useful for me.
Should I order this and try it out? I have been doing alot of reading
on this group and the prognosis for me seems to be surgery. I would
like to avoid surgery if possible. I have been worried about this
problem day and night and at the moment am very anxious.

Thanks for reading. I really needed to write this all down.
