OT: sinus infection

[Guest guest]

I think I may have a sinus infection. =( I haven't had one in years,

not since surgery for my deviated septum/going gluten free.

What can I do? I am having horrible headaches from the congestion. I

am doing saline rinses daily. I refuse to take antibiotics. What can I

take while breastfeeding that will kill this infection? I'm thinking

vitamin C, echinacea...but what else? Is it safe to take Olive leaf

extract or other herbal anti-inflammatories? I am desperate for

something non-drug to work - it's so hard to take care of the baby

with this pain and with little sleep.

I'm working with a homeopath for a chronic condition so not sure if I

can take anything homeopathic - don't want to mess with the remedy I'm

taking already from him.
