I was put on anti bs on wednesday, had been suffering with bad sinus pain for 2 weeks and I had developed a temperature so went up the drs that night and was given amoxicillin 250mg 3x a day. I have been on them almost 5 days and after 2 days I felt abit better but now im back in pain in my right ear and eye, id of thought by now id be feeling better or can they take longer?

I am waiting to see an ENT surgeon in January, seems a lifetime away, ive been suffering like this for well over a year now and there is very little my GP can do for me now. Even neurofen doesn't touch the ache because its an awful pressure.

Does anyone have any tips on what else I can do for this chronic & acute sinusitis in the mean time? dr says i have both, my ear and head feel like they are pulsing.

I can't help but worry about the meningitis risk (yet again) also im worrying I might have an ear tumour or something nasty like a brain absess (another complication of chronic sinusitis) im worried sick.
