The symptoms seemed to have gone away but I was under a lot of stress at that time and they came back.
I saw my Dr who said it was a virus.He also said it came back because of the stress on my immune system.
For the past couple weeks, I have had thick green discharge from my. Sinuses who is almost gone' and my voice still sounds nasally. The Dr put me on levaquin but I had a reaction to it at just three days. Because I'm allergic to so many antibiotics, he didn't put me on anotherr one.
I then went to my allergist who said the infection isn't that bad' but put me on a strong nasal steroid and antihistamine.
I still sound nasally, but the nasal discharge is clearer. I also still have whooshing in my ear. I have a deviated septum on that side.
I am also not as tired as I was and the swelling under my eyes is much better.
He wanted to try these medicines before doing allergy testing for an antibiotic.
I am just really tired of sounding like I'm sick from my voice and the plugged sinus and ear whooshing.
Can this last this long and can it go away without antibiotics?
I am scared it will never go away.
The allergy Dr wants me to come back but I don't have insurance and more Dr visits are not possible with my finances.
Thanks for your input.
