i owe somebody a great big thank you - - but i'm sorry i don't know their name - - anyway . . .

. . . back in late August or early September someone blogged that they had a severe sinus problem and was looking for an inexpensive way to perhaps overcome the mucus beast.

 

A fellow goloer suggested the neti-pot, an item that I had never heard of before that day.

 

Since I suffer each fall and early winter with sinus infections, I read up on the neti-pot and decided to use it morning and night as a preventative measure against sinus problems.

 

Halleluiah - - it works. 

I had decided that if I made it through the end of the year without a monumental sinus blowup I would blog and thank someone - - but I don’t remember who made the recommendation.

 

Soooooooo whoever suggested the neti-pot – Thank You ! !

neti pot is the BOMB. been using one for 20+ years. Does the job perfectly

I'm not sure I recommended it to you, but I always sing its praises to anyone who has sinus issues. I'm glad it has been beneficial to you!

I woke up with the worst sinus headache this morning... Ive seen this pot in the store but only thought it was a gimmick. Maybe I'll go get one on my lunch.

Squirel, wow I thought this was new...

Interesting. I wonder if it would work on my daughters allergy symptoms.

Hi friend! Gosh, where ya been bud?

How often do you use it?

I have actually thought about getting mine scrapped. But Ive heard you can acutally end up worse off than before.

I've never heard of it before. Do you have to suck liquid up thru your nose? (if you do, then I'll pass on trying it.)

I believe that it would me whom you want to thank. And, you're welcome.

Just kidding.

Has anyone ever tried putting a shop vac up to your mouth and sucking out the mucus? It works fast and efficiently! Very satisfying too.

Just kidding. Don't put a shop vac up to your mouth. Though, now I might try it myself.
