I have been having what I am almost
certain is sinus problems (which has
included face pain and headaches daily).
They have just tried me on clindamycin for
the first time, since doxycycline didn't
work for my sinuses and two rounds of
amoxicillin didn't help what was diagnosed
as strep throat. The clindamycin does seem
to be making a difference--less need for
pain pills. My throat did finally start to
feel better a while back and I stopped
needing to take pain pills for that. It
never totally seemed to resolve, however.
My entire pharynx was involved.
However, even though the clindamycin seems
to be making some headway with my sinus
problem, now it seems my throat is
starting to get sore again (right side,
same side), plus there is tenderness in my
lymph nodes and my jaw bone even (this is
new!). Sometimes it also feels like
whatever I have is trying to make its way
into my right ear.
I have been sick for a long time. This is
discouraging. I even saw an ENT. He told
me there was nothing he could do for me.
(He was not very nice.)
