Jo, I feel for you

Yes, I am feeling the effects of all the assorted pollens hanging out in the air this year. After seeing my niece demonstrate nasal irrigation and how it's helping her allergies, I thought I ought to get one of those sinus irrigators. And I read Jo's post on the necessity of using this in her situation.

Let me tell you, this is not for the faint of heart. There are a million instructions with my particular model irrigator, and of course, I read them first, but missed an important part.

"Contact your physician if you have ever had ear surgery."

I have always had problems with one particular ear, despite surgery (mostly stuffiness). Now I get to nag the ENT to find out if I can continue to use this cool tool, which sure flushed the pollen out yesterday.

Ears feel fine, but I'd like to keep them that way...the joys of fine print.

More to come...only mere days before my move to the SU for a lengthy holiday stay...yes!
