Allergies, Sinusitus, and Fatigue?!?!?!?!? - Sinus Problems Message Board

just1primate · 05-29-2005, 11:51 AM

Just have a few questions.

I have had chronic sinus and allergy problems for years. Claritin helps very little, really all it does is dry out some of thrunny nose and nasal drip. I also just had a moderately infected tooth pulled. I have been exhausted for t he past three days. cant stop yawning, constantly feel spaced out and foggy headed. Now, I always feel a little foggy because my sinus problems are pretty much constant. I also have vision that is just a little fuzzy. Not really blurry, but just sort of not 100%.(Could be from staring at the computer all the time...heh). I feel like I am not connected to my body. Anyone else feel like this? Does anyone think the infections could cause the mahjor fatigue?
Help!

YES...and yes, I got like that when I'm super stuffy, but when I have an infection, I'm definently *extremely* tired!

I must agree with Midget.

There are a few postings (threads, actually) that describe "brain fog" in detail. Quite a few memebrs have posted some great information - might want to browse them a bit. Hopefully, they'll be reassuring. Sure helped me.

I find that both allergic symptoms as well as infection (alone or in combination) make me very fatigue. In fact, fatigue is often the first sign that I'm going to have an allergy attack.

Definitely. And I suspect your infected tooth spread to your sinuses.
