I have terrible sinus pain and have had for 3 days. My 11 month old is bfed and allergic to dairy, he isn't great with a cup or bottle so I am his only source of fluid (apart from that in food).
Having been keen to avoid antibiotics after a night in which I woke up every half an hour in pain, I have given in and gone to the emergency doctor. She had a look up and can see at least one huge polyp, she can't see anything in the really sore nostril because its so swollen.
She has given me Paracetamol with Codeine Phosphate 8mg. This has not even taken the edge off the pain. Even when I take Nurofen as well it is still agonising. My dh rang them earlier to say I was no better and they said that they can't prescribe anything stronger because of the bfing.
For the first time in 11 months I am considering throwing in the bfeeding towel. Before I do can anyone help?
