Does anybody have a recommendation for relieving sinus pressure? I am looking for a nasal spray, was going to try Flonase. I’m going to go look for a nedi pod but I was hoping to find a spray

If you want immediate relief pick up a spray that has real decongestant in it. Because addicts by them in quantities to distill the active ingredient from them for a high, you might not see them over the counter these days so you may have to ask for it.

The steroid nasal sprays like Flonase take two to three days to take effect, I believe.

Okay, thank you

If you have a Sam’s Club near you, they have Flonase and their own Member’s Mark brand that is much cheaper.

yes, the generic works just as well - the kroger brand is what i use in the morning.  here in the south, it's a Godsend, lolz - there is always something growing most of the year!!

I use Nasacort 24 hr. I tried Flonase...but its scent actually triggered my allergies. I was told by a medical professional that Afrin can work short term.

you can develope a dependency on Afrin if you use it alot, that's why they say short term.

Flonase did the job, thank you all for your input.  I will keep Afrin in mind for next time though!

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior".   Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
