I Need Help With Rhinitis
« on: April 19, 2008, 07:09 AM »

Whats up guys. I have had Rhinitis for many years since I was about 12 years old. A lot of times, it gets so bad that both nostrils are blocked and I have to breathe through my mouth. It also affects my sleep as I now have Sleep Apnea as a result of it. I have tried all the treatments from anti-histamines to saline irrigation. I was just wondering if I should go for corrective surgery and what is the process. What do you guys think?

Have you seen a Doctor?
   There are two kinds of Rhinitis, the allergic one and the nonallergic one. So, which one has your doctor diagnosed you with?
   Advice sometimes could be difficult to give especially when one doesn't have clear pictures of the state of the illnesses: So, i suggest you consult your Doctor, s/he is in a better situation to give the best suggestion and advice. Cheers

^^^So there is nonallergic Rhinitis? That must be the piece of information I have been missing. Thank you. After the prick-test, the doctor said I was allergic to cats but I told him I have no contact with cats. He prescribed Nasofan Aqeous anyway and it has not worked. Anyway, I will approach him with this new information. Thanks a lot.
