Hi I want to share my story.
I had squamous cell carcinoma in my ethmoid sinus which had grown stealth-fully for a while. By the time i was diagnosed it had grown to such a size that my eye would be removed too.
In the immediate years that followed I went under the knife about 30 times to reconstruct.
My full story can be read at
A side effect and now necessary hygiene routine is to use a neilmed sinus rinse (douche bottle) to clear the debris (crusting). What I know is that I will have to deal with this for the rest of my life, and there lays the problem..
This method is a ticking time bomb
What happens when I can’t Douche? Either through injury or simply old age, it this crusting isn’t removed it will keep building up and potentially cause me disastrous breathing problems or indeed death by choking.
I created a Facebook page
m.facebook.com/Doucheit-116...
On that page is the awareness video I created in 2017, but this was very light hearted and this dangerous potential element was not considered.
I want to compile a community of people with tips and recommendations for best douching practice, and to research a cure for this condition.
So please share, give advice on here and by liking my Facebook page.
Thankyou
Dan
