Sinusitis

I have sinusitis which I have had for many years. My doctor was not on duty that day so saw a practice nurse. I said I needed the usual antibiotics which he gave me on rare occasions when I needed them. She then did tests for asthma , and prescribed medication for this. After taking the steroids and inhalers I became unwell. I feel although very kind she was more concerned about my breathing which was wheezy ,but this happens with sinusitis. Any thoughts on this please?

If you are still concerned about the wheezing I suggest you visit your doctor and get a second opinion. He/she might refer you to a specialist. With regards to your sinusitis you could try sinusoothe nasal spray. It cured my sinusitis in no time at all and I suffered with it for years. If you do have asthma I would e-mail sinusoothe before using it.
