Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Total tonic = 2 droppers a day Echinacea = 1 dropper a day PP = 1 tblspn a day no snuff Have to confess, with the heart burn, I have not been taking the TT every day...maybe every other day...but, I don't go more than two days...And, as long as I float with water all day, the PP doesn't seem to get me too bad, but taking it, I don't have near as much acne or itchy skin. I have just started the Echinacea again...that's not a routine thing. Total Nutrition = two teaspoons in a 10 oz glass of apple juice or water...was apple or orange, but the orange made me sick too death with heartburn. I have read conflicting things about Echinacea during pregnancy...but, I still think enough of it to take one dropper a day for a week or so...am I spinning my wheels?

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 OK, this is me...lol first off I dont take echinacea unless there is a need to...(not just to take it everyday...) Try taking your total tonic twice a day.. (try taking it and then have some juice after and see if that helps the heartburn....you get the heartburn I assume after taking the TT. take your vit E with PP. Do you have a vaporizer? If so... add some eucalyptus eo and tea tree and peppermint (or at least the eucalyptus) to the water and run it while you sleep.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 angel--do you have a lot of congestion as well as the pressure--if you do i would suggest getting a neti pot (if you don't already have one). they only cost about $10 and are so helpful in clearing your nasal pasages--and just use a saline solution (salt mixed with warm distilled or purified water) so you don't have to worry about contraindications with your pregnancy. i by no means mean for this to be instead of everything else suggested...just in addition. when sick you can do this 4-5 times a day. luv laura herbal remedies , Suzanne <suziesgoats> wrote: > OK, this is me...lol first off I dont take echinacea unless there is a need to...(not just to take it everyday...)

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Welllllllllllllllllllllllll not exactly... however... a liver cleanse would probably do you a world of good later after the pregnancy..... SuziAnjeweleyes <anjewelhaze wrote: Well, no..I ain't sure of anything these days... Don't smack me, but I thought messed up sinuses WAS allergies. *ducking* I really did, I swear. I have been drinking Red Raspberry Leaf tea, Nettle and using this celestial seasonings "sleepytime" mixture in to tolerate the taste...and, Amanda was just telling me that she has problems when ever drinking the commercial teas. The nettle and RRL isn't commercial, but the sleepytime is...and we were wondering if maybe it's not the chamomile? Whatcha think mam? You got me to thinking about this now...how can you have sinus problems if there isn't something irritating them (allergies)? Unless it would be excess mucus from dairy or something...but, then...would'nt that be an allergy of sorts?

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Angel, have you been taking Total Tonic? You should, it won't hurt the baby it is just food. Do not take echinacea unless Doc says it is ok though. When my sinuses do this I use hot and cold on my face First a nice cold pack, then warm and moist (hot shower with the water running on your face is good for this). Nettle is excellent for the sinuses as well, but I would check with Doc on this also.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Angel, peppermint tea is safe at this stage of your pregnancy. Sweeten it with stevia or honey. It will ease the headache, help decongest a bit, and relieve some tension.

Runny nose, eyes, sneezing fits, itchy face..you name it. Right now I don't have any pressure in my nose, but it must be packed up somewhere up there for the head to ache like this... I'm all for any ideas...thanks for yours as well.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 I have been having severe sinus pressure pain in one nostril as part of a cold for several days now, that is causing a headache running all the way from my cheekbone to just above the eye. It is driving me nuts! I cannot take decongestants since I am on Zoloft and Seroquel (I have Asperger's Syndrome), and salene (sp?) solution (recommended to me by my pharmacist) does not work. I have also been taking Extra Strength Tylenol, which is not doing anything. Does anyone have any ideas of remedies to get rid of the pain? Thanks, M.J.
