Is it Pseudomonas you have in your sinus? Interesting that Doxy works so well for you if so. Have you tried inhaling saline through your nose? There is a special neb cup for that.

@irenea8 I have used Netipot rinses to exhaustion.
I try to drain my sinuses before I flush them out.
I bend over and about a 1/4 cup of puss will come out of each side. Then I use the water pic.
I have mixed the sinus rinse and warm distilled water directly into my Water pic. I crank it up to about 1/2 power. Full power would blast your eyes out of their sockets.
I wash a ton of puss out of both sinuses.
This takes me about an hour to do this.
It just got old doing this every day.
So I just try to drain them each day.

@irenea8 I’ve also had 2 sinus operations.
They have ruined the my sinus linings so that if I do wash out my sinuses every day they will bleed for 2 hours.
ENT Drs. Say the pseodamona infection is in the bone so they can’t cut it out. I can’t let this rule my life.
So I just live with it.
This just sucks!
