Over a year ago i was prescribed 6 courses of various types and strengths of anti-biotics for recurring sinus infection over a 4 month period. The result was chronic sinusitus, sensitivity to a wide range of foods, and symtoms which imitate crohns and irritable bowel. i have struggled to gain wait despite HUGE food intake and am currently trying a diet to help fix me. The diet includes the above discussed pro and pre biotics and is starting to help me, it has been a very slow process so far though. Slightly off topic but i must advise people no to take their doctors word as gospel and take multiple antibiotics, especially for a sinus infection. In my opinion overprescribed antibiotics for minor local infections are more damaging to health than any other modern medical practice.
