Has anyone had chronic sinusitis for 10 years or more and has been
"cured"?
I have noticed that some people with fibromyalgia have chronic sinusitis
(low immunity?) and have reported that after years and years of sinusitis
and allergies they are getting well from the revolutionary treatment from
an experienced endocrinologist-Dr. Paul St. Amand. Many of his patients
have reversed their disease. I thought you had to have muscle pain to
have fibro. but that isn't the case, I'm finding out.

I was dx with fibromyaligia but I do not get pain either. I also suffer from
bad allergies and sinusitis. Fibro and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome are used
interchangeably and apparantly are the same condition.
My doctor feels its fibro because I have had constant fatigue for a few
years now and not explained with any other condition.
I think there may be a connection with all this but doctors still really
dont know. It's depressing and I often feel I am being robbed of my life at
only 34 yrs old.
I'd love to know more about what that doctor is doing to treat this. Any
information you can provide?

Sinusitis is an actual diagnosable disease. A symptom of fibromyalgia is
quite common in untreated or poorly treated sinusitis. In my case a poorly
treated sinus infection became systemic causing pains in the joints,
swollen hands etc until it was eventually treated with 6 weeks antibiotics.
Functional Endoscopic Surgery (FESS) made any infections now arising from a
cold or flu much easier to treat.
