Thread: Trusting the Doc

Hope they get you cleared up this time.
I had the sinus irritation deal fo rmonths also. Finally found an old horse doctor who was willing to prescribe an antibiotic that cleared it up.

The other docs were talking about drilling holes in the skull right below the eyebrows and scratching around to cause scar tissue. They said the scar tissue wouldn't allow the nerves to be exposed! I'd still be prone to infections... I just wouldn't feel it! What a bunch of quacks!

You were fortunate. I've run the gambit on antibiotics since New Years, now on the fifth round, this one thirty days which goes into post op, with four different strains of antibiotic and a two week run of prednisone in the middle for good measure. Pills just aren't getting to the infection. Call Roto-Rooter, that's the name and away go troubles down the drain!!

Fortunate.. I guess. It was weeks of crippling headaches, I couldn't open me eyes during the day. Emergency room begging for help.. Lucky to find a doc who said let's be un-conventional.

I'll be saying a prayer for you my friend. I wish there were more!
