If you use the mucus relief product every day, it might help you
recover from this. (and not have another episode).
We both take 1/2 tablet daily at night, as hubby has big sinus problems and I have them occasionally.
I answered you on the other thread...about using this product.
And definitely I'd stop the mag citrate for now.
Really bad diarrhea like I had this summer will have you in the bathroom 6 or more times a day. Long ago I had a spell of over 20 a day, and went to a GI specialist to told me about the metamucil solution, which works like a charm.
If you had difficile, you'd really know it.
Drink lots of water, and use some form of guaifenesin for a while.
If you can tolerate decongestants, it can be bought with those too. (I cannot so I use the DM...and the DM helps with my PN feet discomforts too). Once you eradicate the mucus, using 1/2 dose will keep things from clogging up in the future.
One final thought-- make sure you don't have a bad tooth on that side...say one that is dying. This can cause sinus-like pain also. Put a warm moist cloth on your face to improve the circulation and that may help. Also watch your temperature, etc. I put my strong magnet on my face when I have aching sinus issues...if you have one you could try that as it reduces inflammation. Since you have both sides affected though, a tooth may not be the culprit.
I hope your nasal spray is made from sterile water or sterile saline....if not you risk introducing all sorts of resistant germs and fungi. One has to be really careful spraying things into the nasal passages!
