For those who suffer from year-round sinus problems, there is a new medication out which has worked miracles for me that I'd like to share... I've suffered from nasal allergies for about ten years. I've been on and off nose spray for most of the time; I've been unable to breath though my nose without it. I also occasionally take antihistamines at night. (I went through the typical shot treatment but it did nothing for me.) Two months ago my allergist prescribed a new medication, called Nasalide, a highly diluted cortisone spray. It's so dilute that it takes about a week or two to have affect. Well, after a week, I was breathing freely. After two weeks, all my allergy symptoms disappeared. I use the spray now once a day, sometimes skipping a day. I'm now free from ten years of allergy problems. This medication is out by several companies under the names Beconase and Valinase (I think). I'd fully recommend it. It's currently available by prescription only.
