Epi, I am glad to see that you got your abx! Maybe now you can finally be well! And I am glad to see that you’re still alive and kickin’! Let us know how you are doing! even if its just one word that says “alive”

Mama Mia, I know, I know.

I got the abx, just took four of them.

Bonus: Cost me four bucks at Walmart.

Dude, totally get the Neti Pot. It’s like $10 or $12 for the whole system, and you can get it at any drug store. Amazing, amazing thing. I use mine almost every day and it really helps with all the sinus crap. Let us know how you’re doing, okay?

I’ve heard of this happening and it’s a blockage. One way or another you need to see a doc. Suck it up girl… I know it sucks but you gotta go get some meds. The ER ain’t so bad!

Investigate a NetiPot. I am not sure how good they are for how bad you are but they can keep you from getting to where you are.

I just got off the phone with the docs office. I think it’s time for a new Doctor.

I know a few ER Docs, but no one who I can pick up a phone and call.

I have a few options still. Somehow I think I’ll survive :)

You need antibiotics. If you can’t get in to see your doc, see if there is another doc in the practice that will see you. Alternatively, go to a large multi-doc clinic. You certainly don’t need a lot of resources if this is a sinus infection from a cold, but those antibiotics aren’t going to prescribe themselves.

How well do you know the ER docs? Maybe you can talk one into writing a prescription for you.
