Mergath Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 For those of you who caught my earlier post. And they said I don't have MS. Yay! They did, however, say that I have massive infection in my right sinus, and that could have been causing quite a few of my symptoms. So I have to take some of the biggest pills I've ever seen for ten days, and then I should be much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jplain Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 That's great news! :D Good luck with the sinus infection. Hopefully the antibiotics will work, but those can be a real pain to get rid of. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mergath Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) That's great news! :D Good luck with the sinus infection. Hopefully the antibiotics will work, but those can be a real pain to get rid of. :glare: What's funny is that I didn't have any of the symptoms I normally associate with a sinus infection (aside from the headaches, I suppose) until AFTER I started the antibiotics yesterday. :glare: NOW I have aching nose/cheeks and a runny nose. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Edited November 4, 2011 by Mergath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithManor Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 What's funny is that I didn't have any of the symptoms I normally associate with a sinus infection (aside from the headaches, I supose) until AFTER I started the antibiotics yesterday. :glare: NOW I have aching nose/cheeks and a runny nose. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's a good thing! :001_huh: I'm sorry to have to say that. DD had what her doctor called an impacted sinus infection when she was 11. The only symptom was a sudden balancing, motor issue and mega headaches. None of the typical sinus infection stuff. She too was put on some serious antibiotics as well as decongestants and he wanted her bedroom to have a humidifier or vaporizer as well as KAZ (liquid menthol) added to the water plus the snorting of warm salt water. Yep, the dam burst and she had the stuffy, miserable runny nose thing, sore cheeks, etc. But, it was because all of that impacted infection was letting loose...a necessary misery before healing could begin.

simka2 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I had the same thing happen a year or so ago. Then I reacted to the antibiotics and had to start the regiment all over :glare: I am glad you got answers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 :party: A nasty infection is a nuisance, but it's incredibly great news compared to the alternative. I hope you're feeling better soon -- and I'm so happy for you that the MRI results showed that you don't have MS. What a huge weight off your mind. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
