so i had a cold sinus thing about 2 weeks ago or so. and i really haven't felt normal since. i was feeling pretty decent sometimes, but then after the cold cleared up a bit i felt nasty again.. kinda like it affected me all over. my right ear is feeling plugged a lot, and i was wondering how long i can expect for this problem to last?

also, what role does the eustachian tubes play in all this? are they inflammed or ruined from the cold? and now my allergies are starting because its spring.. so im like.. DAMN IT!

how will this affect a VN recovery?

HI!! i have terrible allergies and the ETD messes with me bad when i have them. My ENT suggested claritin and a nasal steroid, but he told me other than that there is not much he can do....ack! Im sorry i know it sucks bad, but it will go away. :)

yeah, im being nailed hard now with seasonal allergies.. through april may and sometimes june im bad.. perfect timing.. this sucks.

The last time I had a cold it took me three weeks before I felt better. The cold affected my ears badly...it always does. My right ear was so clogged I was afraid I had an infection. I went to my ear doctor to check it out. No infection, just a cold!

I fear colds like the bubonic plauge!

From about a month now, a cold-allergy-sinus trouble, got me all messed up.

Can't say that I'm back to square one, but strangely(to me at least) this year's cold/sinus/allergic episode(I'm a chronic sufferer of this), hit me quite harder that last year's...

Assuming that my initial injury started on Nov 04, this is kind of odd, because I should be more "compensated" by now than I was last year, according to the usual recovery process...

Anyway, until I can knock this out, wich of course is affecting me a lot, I could be able to tell if this is the main cause of my decomp, or if there is somehing else underneath that could also be tampering my recovery, and because sometimes in Mexico City we breath poison, as simple as that, love the city but this is an awful truth, well this could take more time than I'd like to...

So, until you(or we) are properly compensated, Cold/Alergies/Sinus, will give us hell, so take care until you get better.
