I have a sinus infection, and it's had me down for most of the week. I have to take off from work.
I've been sleeping a lot, and I can't look at the computer screen for long, then my head starts to thump.
So until I get better, I'll be offline.

What are the typical symptoms, anyway?

Pressure in the sinus area. Pulsating pressure in head. Feeling of swelling in the throat. Disorientation and nausea.
The diagnosis was sinusitis, caused by a bacterial infection.

I think I've had that once. Yeah, I probably don't have to say this, but rest up, take your time, and drink fluids frequently. You'll be alright...

All I can say is to get some sinus pills like Bynadril or Sudafed and keep eating and drinking things with vitamin C and protein. Build your amune up. Oh yeah, and stay away from alergens like trees, plants, and stuff that will make you worse.
Get well soon.

Air Purifier, the meds already suggested, and Emergen-C would probably help, if you don't mind a powdery-orange taste in your water.

If you do plan on taking Bynadril, hope you don't have that much planned for the day because it WILL make you sleepy and dizzy. Just a word of a caution.

If my time in Scotland has taught me anything, it's that whiskey fixes anything.

Okay, here's an update:
1. I'm borderline hypertension. 2. Inflammation under the eyelids. Weak and have high sensitivity to light in my right eye. 3. Need blood work done.
So now I gotta be drugged up for the next 2 weeks. The blood pressure pills should take my headache away, so I may be able to RP depending on the effects.
I have to change my diet too. Man, this sucks!
