Well I finally fired my physician and went to another one today. I found out that I do in fact have a sinus infection but I also was severly dehydrated. I was admited to the er and pumped full of fluids. I am home now and feel a little better. The dizzy spells were not caused by my eustacian tubes they were caused by dehydration. I was prescribed a nasal steriod spray and told to use the breathe right nose strips. The breathe right strips are working great I would recommend them to anyone. They are a great drug free way to help your sinuses. I was told by my doc that my pregnany and my sinus infection drained me of my fluids. I would recommend that anyone who has a sinus infection ect be checked for dehydration. I am soooo relieved that I am FINALLY being treated the right way and will be on my feet in less then a week after MONTHS and MONTHS of being in bed. Keep changing doctors untill you get the right diagnosis ( until you are cured) dont let your life pass you by. BE AGGRESIVE with the medical community. If I had not gone to the new doctor today I could have had seizures, brain damage or heart failure. Good luck to all of you.
