Go to a ENT (preferably one that doesn't think sinus surgery is the first option). The one my H went to said he could justify surgery - - but would prefer to treat with antihistamines and cortisone pump sprays to avoid surgery. Even as a ENT surgeon, he said sinus surgery should be an absolute last resort - dangerous and not always successful anyways. The 3 perscriptions he wrote were for stuff I have never heard of - -but they really worked. Hubby got relief and it's been 6 months since has had a sinus infection!!
If they can get the allergic reaction under control - even with your suppressed immune system, you'll have a better chance of not getting those nasty infections.
Let me know what you think - Sue

Well, sue, i def. agree with everything youve said here. Yet ive seen an ENT who just gives me drugs everytime, and this cant be helpful. Yet im unsure what you mean by an allergic reaction.
