  1. @FeralRobots Okay, I bought some povidone iodine nasal spray! Apparently it has no known interactions with any of my meds or supplements. So that's a good start! The pharmacist said it won't help directly with my #ChronicSinusitis, but it will help to prevent viral infections -- which is what usually triggers my #sinus issues. So here's hoping!

    The spray itself is clear, so I expect no staining. When I sprayed it up my nose, it smelled like the leather of a new purse fresh from the store. 😆

  2. I was yesterday years old when I learned that I've been using nosesprays wrong my entire life. Apparently, you're supposed to angle the nozzle toward the outer side of your nose, so that it enters your nasal cavities beneath your cheekbones. Tested this with my Azelastine spray, which usually leaves the most bitter taste in the back of my throat. Can confirm that angling it toward the cheekbones works.

  3. Ugh. Not feeling like a box of birds this morning.

    My chronic sinusitis symptoms have been steadily getting worse over the last 4 days. Hubby said it won't be long now until it turns into a sinus infection, and yep, there's definite evidence of that this morning 😩 #chronicsinusitis #sinusinfection
