I've been using a Hydropulse for 3 days and I feel
better but I feel that while the other sinuses are unclogging
the frontal sinuses are still blocked.
I don't have headaches anymore but I feel heavy above the eyes
and something moving if I bend the head.
I'm taking mucolitics, C vitamin and herbs but it doesn't seem
to help.
What could I do ?

Be patient. It took me a couple weeks of irrigation to notice a real
difference and 6 months before I noticed a huge difference. It took months
to get all the various levels of gunk out of my head. If you want to try and
speed up getting rid of the mucus, you might try adding a couple tablespoons
of Alkalol to the saline and see if that helps.  Also, drink some green tea
each day and drink as much water as practical.    AW

I drink a cup of warm tea every morning and my sinus's seem to start to
drain.
I feel like I have a stuffy nose in the morning, no matter what I do the
night before, (drops, nasal rinses, etc.) nothing helps me like warm tea
helps.

Dr. Grossan (here at our site)) told us warm tea is very good for our
sinus's.

Have you seen a physician lately?  If you've got a physical anatomical
blockage in your sinuses, then all the irrigation in the world won't fix
it.  If you've got allergies, then all the irrigation in the world won't
cure those either.  So you need to rule out things that require medical
attention, before continuing with your self-treatment.

I had two CT scan and no blockages just a cyst in the maxillary sinus
which was removed surgically.
after a month or two I got cold and the other sinuses started to be clogged
(I feel the problem now at the frontal level)
I never suffered allergies so I think the problem is just that I didn't
care about frontal sinuses for  4 years now and the cilia are probably
buried alive if not dead! (CT scans are old, maybe now they would show mucus
in
some of the sinuses)
Now I want to do everything possible before go to the surgeon again...
I'm drinking tea and it helps but I still feel that weight on my eyes while
the other sinuses seem better.
I'm wondering if smtgh could arrive to revive the frontal sinuses ...
I try to put a flexible and soft tube inside the nose for irrigating with
the hydropulse
near the drainage of the frontal sinuses...
I used vibrations, ultrasonic sounds, warm pads ...
Today I bought eucalyptus because here in Italy we don't have alkalol
and I don't want to use listerine, it could be dangerous...
Probably I just have to wait and hope but I ask:
someone had a similar experience ? will the frontal sinuses slowly get empty
after a so long chronic sinusitis ?

Why don't you get a scan anyway.  Thatt does not commit you to surgery.

Sinisitis usually progresses from the max. to the ethmoid to the frontal and
finally to the spenoid.

If you wait until it gets to gets to the sphenoid it will not be too easy to
fix any more......
