Glynda,
You are so funny:D. Boy did I raise a big stink for suggesting the neti pot huh:eek: Only reason I know of it is because my husband has owned one for many, many years now since he suffered badly from sinuses. He had surgery last year though, and it has made a world of difference, hasn't had one infection since his surgery. YAY! As for the pot, he never used tap water, thank God. His ENT recommended a rinse to go along with the neti pot. I can always get the info for you in you want to consider it. As for VICS, I swear by that stuff really. WOW! I rub it also on my kids' throats and chests and feet, yeah I said feet, (the soles), for coughs. Works for me..., so I will stick to the VICS and leave the neti pot to hubby...
Hope all is well.
Much love to you and babies.

I am always open to another person's method or ideas how to train so I will study Pat Miller more indepth. How can I not--she has a donkey named Joan which is my daughter's name in English (her name is the German form of Joan)--haha!!!! That is so wonderful you can go hear her speak and hopefully ask questions!!! :)
I hope you are feeling better for the weekend. I heard about all the snow and the cold temperatures back your way. It has still been in the 70's out here, but a little cold this morning. My husband said he saw a little frost on the grass at the school he took Ella to this morning to run free from the leash.
I am keeping my fingers crossed Zoe is on a healthy track....:D
HAPPY WEEKEND!!!!
:o Oh....ok, I'm up to speed now. I was trying to connect Pat Miller to Neti Pots and getting absolutely no where! I need more coffee....
Yes, Addy, I did miss that part! :p I hope you get to go!
Hugs,
Leslie and her feeble brain
Wow....lots of info here, today! Thanks for the NetiPots warning. Bob has used one - I'm forwarding this info to him.
Thanks for letting me know about Pat Miller. I ordered a pamphlet.....and her book.
I have the BEST collection of books....problem is I almost never read them. I'm just not one who can keep her attention on book. I can do fine on the computer or magazines, but not books. I remain ever hopeful, however.
Hope you feel better Addy.
It's 34 degrees here and Bailey LOVES it. Crazy dog. Oh-I'm going to post some new pictures......
Love,
Sus
You guys crack me up:D:D:D:D:D Doesn't matter how crummy I feel you guys always bring me back up. My face and head stopped hurting for awhile I was laughing so hard.:D:D:D:D
Pat Miller invented neti pots, not, just kidding.:p:p:p:p:p
Lori- I watched the video of the nasal wash and freaked out when I saw all that water coming out of the lady.:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Do you really do that? You are very brave. I cant do it, I really am a wimp when it comes to water up my nose. LOL!!! My face must be above the water at all times:rolleyes::rolleyes:
I hope I get to go see Pat Miller too. She is one of my heros. She used to train horses in Wisconsin. I just read that about her.
Now I like her even more.
Yes I do try to do that once a day, and it did take me a bit of time to get used to the water up and out of my nose! It feels so good after I am done and I don't get many sinus infections, maybe once a year, I probably wouldn't get any if I did the rinse every day.Quote:

pat miller didnt invent the neti pot?
lol:d
Lori,
That is the same stuff my husband uses with his Neti pot, and it works wonders for him, but I have to say, if you suffer from a deviated septum, he had surgery last year, and has not gotten any sinus infections since then. As you, he used to get them too often and be miserable.
Hope you and Bear are on your way to recovery.

Hey Jeannette
How bad was it to go through the surgery? Sometimes I wonder if it is just I never completely get rid of the infection. Everything gets so inflamed, nothing will drain except down my throat and my eyes have so much pressure. When it gets this bad it seems like the only thing that helps is prednisone.
I can't believe the weekend is over:eek::eek:
love,
addy
