Lap band and a sinus infection...

All I can say is drink plenty of hot liquids to keep your stoma cleared out while you wait for the anti-biotic to kick in.

Yup. Word.

Hot ginger tea is a wonder drug. Hope you feel better soon. Tis the allergy season.......

PA told me if I get too many sinus infections or asthma issues and i have to use Prednisone my band mmay have to be removed due to the excessive weight gain I have with this drug. Used to gain about 5 pounds but after band I gained 7 pounds in 3 days. It went away in a week after stopping the drug, but scared the heck out of me. That is usually the treatment all the docs give me for sinus and asthma problems.
