Hi Sinuswoes,
I have also had a sinus infection now for almost 6 years. I had fluid in my sinuses for years, that the doc said would go away, then it became an ear and sinus infection. I took plenty of antibiotics, and it would always drain into that ear. Did the netti pot with all sorts of treatments, took colloidal silver for months (don't recommend as it doesn't work now). I have Hashimotos, heavy metals and candida, so plenty of other issues. Here's what has worked for me:
If I use a netti pot, I put in a drop of iodine and a drop of coated silver (which is a concentrated dose, I think 6000mcg, with the saline. I also have citri drops that are antifungal and add a few of those. I might do this twice a week. It helps sometimes and sometimes not. I'm not a huge fan as it seems to wash it all out, good and bad.
About 4 years ago, I got a nose spray from the compounding pharmacy. It is MEG -Mucipiron, EDTA and Gentomycin (sp on all?). It is an antibiotic, chelator and antifungal. It helps break up all that layer of infection. My functional medicine doc's assistant said that it can be like layers of rock. Use it 3x a day; it is $80 a month, so expensive. Can't say it was very fast, but help to control the infection.
One thing that seemed to help a lot and is very little cost is nebulizing colloidal silver and iodine, maybe 1/2 tsp silver, 1 drop of iodine and 9% buffered saline. I have the omicron nebulizer and a nose piece, so it's fast and easy. You can do this several times a day; sometimes you are stuffy, so just go by how much you can tolerate. I'm sure you can do it 4-5 times a day if you need relief.
When I could not keep the ear infections under control, I took MMS (Chlorine Dioxide) for a year. Took discipline, but I knew it would take care of systemic infection. It did get rid of the ear infection that I had for 5 years.
Another thing you can do to break up the infection is take the maximum dose of serrepeptase. It breaks up proteins so helps break up all that sinus junk.
Right now, the sinus issues are very mild. I have so many other issues, I decided to get a glutathione infusion each week along with the Hyperbaric chamber to clear my liver. I have detoxed, but one thing I have noticed is that my sinuses are calm and there is hardly any infection. So make sure you are keeping your whole body as healthy as possible. If I had to do it again, I would do the nose neb, focus on cleansing the body and taken the MMS earlier.
Check out the mold in your environment and make sure you are on an anti-candida diet. You can begin taking iodine every day, check out Bill Thompson's protocol on this site. Iodine kills everything. But you do have to know if you have thyroid issues.
One more thing, I am very aware of EMF issues. I had terrible insomnia in hotels. I keep my phone in the garage and check it a few times a day. People are unaware of the effect of radiation from the satellites, cell towers and phone. I was so tired of my insomnia that I have had for 35 years, that I bought an EMF tent from Dr. Mercola. The first night I slept in it, I slept 8 hours straight, had no electric currents running through my chest and legs, no "exploding head" syndrome, and no eye pain. It is $500 (but sometimes on sale on Black Friday). Worth every penny; at least for 8-12 hours a day my body gets a break from the bombardment of everyone's phone and all the other devices that surround us.
Let me know if you have any questions. It is very hard to live with!
