Pseudomonas Sinus Infection

I’ve had a pseudomonas infection for over 45 years.
2 sinus operations. Warning, these operations ruin your sinus linings.
I’ve have now developed an issue where penicillin based antibiotics don’t work and absolutely shows no sign of helping at all.
I’m going to the Mayo Clinic in October 2024.
I’ve tried sinus flushes where I put the Nettie- pot powder in my water pix.
Then put it on about 1/2 of its pressure. Because of my operations the Nettie-pot nozzle goes in about 5-6”. So it really can get to where the infection is located. I’ve flushed out up to about 1/4 cup of green,gray, yellow and brown, really gross stuff.
The power in the water-pix blows past the bio film that the infection makes to protect itself.
I’ve tried everything over the years To where I’ve almost given up.
Right now, if I bend over and tilt my head sideways, it just pours out of my nose.
I live in central Oregon and I’m not a well off person. So going to the Mayo Clinic in Arizona is huge expense. I’ll drive down because of my limited income .
I’m really hoping they can help me get rid of this life long infection.

Do you nebulize saline every day? If you did it with a mask instead of the mouthpiece that might help?
