    Get the operation. You will be much better off. I had it done. Rinse your nose daily.

    HI THere

    Here are some ideas on how to heal the issue. You also need to learn about cleansing the body of toxins by doing a colon and liver cleanse to heal for long term.

    Cause of Allergies
    Overall, the underlying causes of allergy and sensitivity are dietary and lifestyle factors specifically titled as imbalanced immune function, barrier function default (such as “leaky gut” syndrome), and toxic overload. Each of these are, in varying degrees, responsible for the development and continuation of allergy and sensitivity.

    Herbal Medicine: There are a variety of herbs that offer relief from allergies, such as goldenseal, red sage, and goldenrod. To reduce mucus, try astringents such as yarrow and myrrh (Commiphora myrrha). These help to contract inflamed tissues and reduce secretions and discharges. To strengthen immune response use echinacea, astragalus root, goldenseal root, and Pfaffia paniculata (suma or Brazilian ginseng). These herbs can be effective and safe for treating weakened immune systems.

    Cayenne pepper is a favorite herb among those treating allergy patients. The active ingredient is a strong anti-inflammatory, and it is recommend to allergy suffers, including asthma patients, as a simple and effective treatment. Sprinkling liberal amounts of the pepper on meals for a few days can provide relief.

    Although herbal remedies have shown excellent results in reducing allergy/sensitivity symptoms, using herbs to treat allergies involves an individual approach. Some particularly effective anti-inflammatory herbs are stinging nettle, Ginkgo biloba, and licorice. Chinese skullcap, ephedra, and feverfew are others to consider for treating allergy symptoms. Patients whose conditions are severe should consult with a trained herbalist or naturopath.

    A major symptom of allergies is gastrointestinal upset, including bloating, gas, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea. Demulcent herbs can alleviate these symptoms (demulcent is a term used by herbalists to describe an herb that has a protective effect on the mucous membranes by minimizing irritation). The most commonly used herbs are marshmallow, slippery elm bark, cabbage juice, okra, fenugreek, and aloe vera.

    Homeopathy: Homeopathy has widespread applications for the treatment of allergies. In many situations, minute diluted doses of the substance a person is allergic to can be prepared as a homeopathic solution that triggers the body`s natural ability to heal itself.

    Homeopathic remedies are best prescribed by a competent homeopath. Self-diagnosis is discouraged due to the variety of factors that must be considered before the appropriate treatment is selected. However, the following remedies can be helpful: Ferrum phos, lycopodium, and silica.

    Juice Therapy: A juice fast of organic vegetable juices for 2-3 weeks can help detoxify the body, thus improving its ability to cope with allergies. Two useful juice combinations for this purpose are beet, carrot, and cucumber; and carrot and celery. For added benefit, add a small piece of ginger root to either juice combination.

    Recipe:Tomato Tea Cures

    Spicy Tomato Tea: The #1 Remedy To Cure Severe Sinus Congestion

    Writes Jean, “After drinking this tea hot, your sinus congestion will disappear REAL fast! All these ingredients not only work on the immediate symptoms, but also add vitamin C to fight a cold and garlic to fight infection.”

    Add 1 cup tomato juice, 1 tsp chopped fresh garlic, 1/2 tsp of hot sauce, 1 tsp lemon juice, and a pinch or two of celery salt for flavor. Heat ingredients and drink hot.

    6/8/2006: Jean writes us again: “Really delighted that the tomato recipe is working so well for so many people. :) The reason I picked these ingredients is this: tomato and lemon juices for their high vitamin C content, hot sauce for its ability to clear out the sinuses, and garlic for its anti-bacterial qualities. In addition, all of these ingredients have many other properties that are extremely good for the body’s ability to heal itself. If you also add worcestershire sauce and celery salt, you have a bloody mary without the vodka! :) The reason for heating it is obvious… the fumes from the hot sauce work their way farther into your sinuses, carrying the fumes of the anti-bacterial garlic with it. I drink this even when I’m not sick, as I love the taste. :)”

    11/7/2006: Jean writes: “Amended for greater effectiveness: The first 4 ingredients are well-known serious herbals for their medicinal properties… Used together they can do wonders for sinus/ear infections, colds, coughing and sore throat. I’ve even found it to kill flu germs.

    2 cups tomato or V8 juice
    1 tablespoon fresh garlic
    As much hot sauce or cayenne pepper as you can stand
    1 tablespoon lemon juice

    VERY IMPORTANT: Drink it HOT and SIP … This sends the bacteria killing fumes into your sinus passages.

    Note: Adding celery salt and a dash of worcestershire sauce make it taste like a bloody mary.

    Three mistakes I’m seeing in the people who say it didn’t work very well…

    1. Get as close to the ingredients listed as possible… When you feel better, go buy the real thing. It WILL make a difference.

    2. Drink as much as you can as often as you can until you are SURE the infection is gone. This is past the time when you “feel better.”

    3. Drink it HOT and SLOWLY, so you get those fumes going up into your sinuses. This mix is highly anti-bacterial and will KILL the infection.

    Let me recount a story of my own from last year. My own 17 year old son didn’t believe this would help and doesn’t care much for tomato juice, so he didn’t want to give this a chance. For about 7 months, he had my ex-husband continually running him back and forth to the doctor for one antibiotic after another and a host of other medicines trying to get rid of chronic sinus/ear infections. He was miserable. It just kept coming back. He finally decided to give my tomato tea an honest test. Within a week of using it regularly and sipping it HOT, the infections were gone totally, and haven’t returned. That was about 8 months ago.

    Tomato and lemon juices for their high vit C, hot sauce and garlic to clear out the sinuses and kill the obnoxious bacteria. These ingredients have many other properties extremely good for the body’s ability to heal itself. The reason for heating is obvious… the fumes work their way up into the sinuses, carrying the germ-killing fumes with it.

    I drink this even when I’m not sick, as I love the taste. Really delighted that the tomato recipe is working so well for so many people. :)

    Oh one more thing to add… Drinking this tomato tea regularly when NOT sick, will kill the germs before they can make you sick!”
    Best of health to you

    I know that you are scared but you have had two opinions from ENT’s and received the same answer. Now you have a choice to make. Face developing glaucoma taking budesonide (do you really want to go blind) or take a calculated risk that you will be able to breath properly. The chance of you developing empty nasal syndrome is extremely small, less than 1%. Look at the bright side. You really didn’t stress the positives. You WILL BE ABLE TO BREATH. No more deviated septum. No more post nasal drip on a continuous basis. No more pressure. No more pain. Less sinus infections and head colds. NO MORE Antibiotic and other drugs. These are ALL good things to me. You have already been suffering for five years by your on words. Why prolong it. Your choice. You can E-mail me if your need to talk further.
