For about 1-1/2 years I’ve had a constant sinus infection. My doctor and allergist have tried numerous regimes of antibiotics but it never seems to go away. Can sinus infection cause other ailments?

How can I get rid of a chronic sinus infection?

I have had a sinus infection 4 times so far in 2006. Obviously the meds I get from the doctor can’t help. It goes away and comes back a few weeks later. Any suggestions on how I can kill this thing myself?
