Guest guest Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Take a good hard look into food allergies, this could explain the sinus problems and the migraines. Many people are using the steroid sprays with good results, but if he is allergic to something and you can find it with elimination diet, muscle testing or something else, you may solve the problem for good, unless he eats it anyway. My friend was fine one day and had a bit of milk in his coffee and almost immediately was all stuffy. I have also treated migraines and my own depression by removing the offending foods. http://www.MigrainePrevention.org is where I got my original info that I use. There is a free to download handbook that explains a lot, and lots of info on the site. It may be hard to get a kid to not eat his favorite foods, but if this is the problem, he will learn and avoid them most of the time like I do. good luck anomie On Sep 21, 2004, at 11:49 PM, herbal remedies wrote: > My twelve year old son was diagnosed with chronic sinusitis after > years of suffering from migraines.
