Sinus sufferers, survey.

[tiredsville]

I have had problems with my sinuses for many years, with many visits to the ENT.

I have also noticed there is a huge handful of mothers in the general health forum who also seem to have chronic sinus problems.
My sinus hell started a couple of months after the birth of my DC years ago.
Is there any other sufferers that think the birth of their child has done something funky to their body and triggered some sort of chronic condition?????

No, but I think it was going on beta-blockers for my migraines that started off the post-nasal drip.

Or maybe just an unhappy coincidence, but it started at the same time.

Had my sinus problems for years. Made worse over the past few months by having one cold after another, with no prolonged period of recovery.

I just think some folk are prone to bad sinuses. If I ever get a cold it hangs around for months as congestion. My Grandad was the same, as is my Mum.

I had sinus problems long before having children...

Mine got worse after having miscarriage between DSs but have improved slighly after stopping the pill, so thing hormones might have some effect.
