right heres the deal. cant believe im writing this on a forum but its gone on for too long.

I have always had alergies. dust/hay and what not, but now im convinced after doing research that i have these Polyps things as well, it all fits. I probably have done for a while too but only just found out what they are, i always just put it down to dust allergies in the winter and hay fever in the summer. I take one anti-histimne tablet a day and cross my fingers hope it works!!. BUT ALL YEAR ROUND RUNNY NOSE !!!! c'umon it not fair.

Sometimes i can feel them at the top of my nose. I can feel them throbbing. Then, as if the walls of a dam crack open, it comes streaming out my nose. I say everydays a gamble becasue i never know if im going to wake up and be free from this demon one day to the next. I can go whole weeks or months without them bothering me but vica versa i can have whole streches where im suffering. and its truly a depressing state.

Soon as i wake up im aware of the feeling in my nose. If i can get up, go to work, sit at my desk without sneezing or leaking then i know that its going to be a good day. but, if i sneeze ONCE in that time the whole day is an uncomfortobal nightmare. and i look like sh*t.. all puffy faced and red. That what gets me though, why one day? and not the other?

Im 24 and male by the way. I need help with this. Its almost ruining my life. I use nasal sprays too but they dont always work. My nose is like a leaking tap.

Guess what i need is to find a way of controlling it. Seems like theres no point in surgery if they grow back. All i want is to be able to smell and enjoy my girls cooking. ARRRGH!

rant over

THAT IS ALL.

    I feel the same way. These nasal polyps have been messing up my life. My life is just around my sinuses. I have had to have the surgery every 5 years. I don't know what else to do. I search the net daily. Has anyone tried the fugal nasal sprays??? I tried it and its didn't do anything for me. I will try anything at this point.

    i thought it was just me going crazy and i feel for everyone that has the dreaded nasal polyps. Just had my second surgery just 1 year on from the first and after this experience never ever again. The runny nose and sneezing seems a doddle compared to the way i feel right now. Hope there is one day a cure.
