It seems like EVERY fall, I get sinusitis. This one is not exempt.

I have the typical:

• aching pressure in my face
• clogged nose
• headache
• swollen eyes
• aching upper teeth/gums (yes, this is a real symptom)

Thankfully it is the weekend with little to do except watch some dvds I picked up at the library. And drink tea - LOTS of tea! I will also try some saline spray, which has helped alleviate symptoms in the past.

Strangely enough, I do not have pollen allergies, which is a common trigger of sinusitis. My only environmental allergy is two two types of mold; so I asume the piles of rotting, wet maple leaves outside the hosue might have something to do with that???

My husband is still in Europe: Italy today then tomorrow he departs for a week in Copenhagen, Denmark. He called me about 45 minutes ago and kept recounting his trip today to Como (Lake Como) and how I would just love it and he wished I was there. Maybe someday, if I ever get around to obtaining a passport, I will accompany him on one of his International adventures - hopefully, without a sinus infection!
