Sinus infection. What were your symptoms?

[lelespears]

Think I have this but freaking out its a brain tumour or something. Dr today gave me anti bios. But I feel so so bad. I'm totally petrified.

I usually have pain in my upper cheek area and bridge of my nose.

Pressure in the sinuses, pain in forehead between my eyes, under my eyes etc., hard to breathe, wonderfully colored snotty discharge ~lol~ Feeling kind of blah and tired... what else do you want to know? ;)

Take your antibiotics and ride it out... no harm, no foul, no collecting $200 when you pass Go....

I feel like in on a swaying boat or like I'm drowning. It's awful..

Totally off balance.

Dizzy, pressure in face, weird numbness in mouth, headache, eye twitching. I had a few of them last year. x

How long do they last before anti bios start working

[greenlady]

did you have swolen glands?

I always feel as though I have an axe through my head. And something sticking through the back of my eye. Fever, pain, general dopey-ness. Yes, and swollen glands... Hugs. It WILL get better, honestly! XXX

Do you feel wobbly? Like drunk?

This is awful. No swollen glass but I wouldn't really no where to look.

Lele,

You have a sinus infection. Unfortunately, you're sick and you're going to feel sick. Take your meds, drink plenty of fluid and get plenty of rest. It takes a few days for the meds to kick in and you'll start to feel better :)

I had sinus problems a few Christmas ago. It was mainly my tooth, so had to see an emergency dentist over Christmas and also GP to be given something to help. which is did.

Antibiotics should start working in at the MOST a couple of days... but you should be taking painkillers (if you can) to take the edge off it. What did your doctor advise? If you go into a chemist, they are able to advise you and know all about cross-reactions too...
