Sinus Problems

Hello, I have been plagued with sinus infections for years. Seems like every cold I get goes directly into a sinus infection. It is like the mucus is stuck in my sinus' and just won't come out. In 2000, I had a sinus problem that lasted about 2 1/2 months. My current sinus infection has lasted 2 weeks. I would like to find out a way stop this or at least make sure it does not last 2 months. In the past I have seen ear/nose/ throat doctors, had xrays, CT scans and whatever they could think of, but no obstructions, etc. This time, I have already undergone one round of strong antibiotics- Zithromax, but still feel congested and awful. I believe I have gone from cold to sinus infection to flu, yet the sinus infection still lingers. Afer researching the internet, I even irrigated my sinus' with an over the counter medication. But the fluid does not flow through like the instructions said it would. I am really tired of this. I have not been swimming or working out. Does anyone out there know a cure? All clogged up.

    I know this is going to sound terrible... I heard the other day (on a little health news blip on the TV) that a lot of folks who think they have sinsus infections really have, hold on, mold growing in their sinsus and that antibiotics don't work for this problem, that they need an anti fungal. Just something else to consider or ask your doctor about.
