Do you often need to blow your nose or have nasal symptoms?

[antares4141]

My nose is much clearer since I went gluten-free and then low-grain, low-sugar. It had been getting very bad, and keeping me awake - I was having to prop my head on 4 pillows and try a range of unsuccessful pharmaceutical and natural remedies. The diet finally fixed it, along with a lot of other symptoms, and they stay fixed unless I over-exert.

I can dido that. Before I went off gluten had stomach bloat had to sleep for two hours and felt really terrible have a hard time describing it. Still have runny nose at times when I eat certain things and breath certain allergens. And almost always when I first go out into cold weather.

I think this thread is highly relevant:

It talks about Dr Brewer's belief we have a chronic fungal infection in our nasal passages.

It would be interesting to know if those who have alot of sinus issues also have low neutrophils??

I don't.

Neutrophils have always been in normal range for me
My chronic sinus seems to be directly linked to PEM as whenever I over do my sinuses ache and worsen.

All of this started for me when I lived in a somewhat moldy appartment and got allergies that then gave me chronic sinuitus. Then I got fibro and ME. I can have flu symptoms, depression, tiredness and it will go away in 60 seconds after I get the big glob of infection out. It's so important to get it out in my treatment, that I will go to extreams to get it out. It's the freakiest thing.
