I didn't get kicked off, but she quickly deleted 2 of my posts that said steroids had helped me, once regarding asthma and once for PND. She did send me a warning so maybe has changed since Sue's experience. Imo, clearance and nasal rinses help, but once a person's in a deep hole as I was, they may not be enough. My sinus drainage didn't improve until an ENT specializing in frontal sinuses added a steroid to my sinus rinse. I was already on steroid spray. I'd also been doing NeilMed rinses 2x/day for2-3 months and was still hoarse from all the drainage.
I stopped reading after she advised a woman who sounded pretty sick with elevated fever, productive colored cough, etc. not to take antibiotics patient's doc recommended, but increase airway clearance. I posted a generic sounding note encouraging woman to call doc again or go in if not better rather than saying I thought that could be harmful advice because I didn't want it deleted , too. Imo, that type of specific advice without med training or without knowing/seeing the patient crossed a line for me and I quit reading. I think people here share what worked for them or suggest another opinion and I'm more comfortable with that approach.
I do recognize that she's helped many people learn about airway clearance .
