Yes. Welcome to the club. About 6 weeks here.
Sinus infection.

Z-pack didn't knock it out
Amoxicillin didn't knock it out

I can handle sniffles or a cough, but this one has me feeling fatigued all the time.

Went to the ENT today and he brought out the big guns. Gave me 2 different antibiotics that I've never heard of and can't pronounce.

I thought I was going to have to beat his arse when he took a culture from my nose and used about an 8-inch long q-tip to do it. He went so far up my nose I thought the q-tip was going to come out of my eye-hole. Had flashbacks to Covid testing.

Do you guys have chest congestion and coughing up mucus too?


Yup. Mine started October 29th and went off and on until mid-January. I was coughing up some nasty, bright-colored stuff with it. Funny thing is that was happening when I wasn't actually feeling that bad.

So much green snot. Like 20 some days in a row. Finally getting some relief in the last 3-4 days. Went to ENT and got nasal spray and antibiotic. Got a wheezing going on too still.

Sinus infection in early January, got somewhat better, tuesday before Mardi Gras roared back with a vengeance……tried some cough syrup at night, but that just began a series of congestion in the morning, dripping/coughing up gunk at night….went to the ent last Thursday, feel mostly better, but not close to 100%. Wife has been congested for the past 6 weeks too and she rarely gets sick.

I didn’t have any of this. It was all nose and cough. That cough was freaking brutal. Best ab workout I’ve had in ages.

Bronchitis probably. Get some antibiotics. Wife and I are just now getting over it. Took almost 5 weeks to get rid of it. Still have some breathing issues over it but it’s slowly going away.

When I lived in Denver I had to live with a sinus infection because apparently no doctor there could treat it.
