Guest guest Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 Just since I know I'll probably here this, let me give some more info... I have been using the saline irrigation for the sinus infection. It has helped clear my sinuses - but I'm wondering if the salt could be causing the polyps to swell (they're getting larger still each day). 2nd - I'm also weaning my last baby. I know garlic is a thought - but not sure about taking that while still nursing. Wouldn't it hurt his tummy? 3rd - All this is an overdose of giving in to pregnancy cravings I believe. More junk foods than normal, and I had more dairy last week than usual - cheese, milk, and buttermilk products. This isn't common - but since the baby is weaning and I've been limited with him (dairy caused bad reflux while nursing), I treated myself to dairy. Oops! I know I have an autoimmune disorder, and dysautonomia - so my body is all messed up. I'm not sure if I should boost my immune system or not - since it's in overdrive. I've started reacting to tartrazines and salicyliates again this pregnancy - artificial colors and certain foods. Breaking out in an eczema like rash on my leg as I did last pregnancy. I can hardly eat anything without reactions of some sort and feel so hopeless. I'm really hoping someone here has a great alternative to modern day medicine - cause they really don't know much! Thanks again, Candace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
