I Cant Take It Anymore

UGH I have had a sinus infection since Oct 2003 and no matter what it will not go away. I have been to the Dr and nothing worked. Right now I dont have insurance so I cant go back. I have fluid in my ears from it and tend to get vertigo ALOT. I feel like I am under water most of the time. I am always tired and I just cant take it anymore. Does anyone out there have advice? PLEASE ANYTHING I will try ANYTHING at this point.

Would your doctor order this simple blood test?

You wouldn't need the funds for a doctor's visit if one of the doctors you have seen might be willing to give an order for these 2 tests at the lab:

a retic ratio (Reticulocyte Count) and ask for comment on the size and shape of the red blood cells. ... AND the Complete Blood Counts with differential (the combined tests are around $70 in our area)

This is an often overlooked cause of fatigue.

What did you start doing in Oct, 2003? With eyes watering and sinus infections... these could be signals that you are being exposed to the butyl ether chemicals &/or ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (2-butoxyethanol) It is in lots of things

I did not start to do anything that I know of. I am a smoker and have been for 14 years now. I do however want to stop but its not that easy. My eyes didnt start watering it is my ears that feel like they have water in them.

Sorry, I didn't get that right. Earache can be a symptom of too much of a chemical exposure of some kind. Sounds odd, doesn't it?

I share the list on this post

To learn more about these search for solvent studies, and you should find something
