Hi there!
Just thought check out podcasts on Spotify. Got to you (Ep. 57–Sinus and Migraines). Try finding information on getting rid of a stinky smell in your mouth (tinny taste).
ENT guy looks up nose, gave me anti-biotics/flagyl/nose steroid spray. Improved but still there. (Sometimes you just do the anti-biotics! Long time gut researcher chic.)
But you put a lot together that I had not thought about. Always learning.
So the stinky taste in mouth (it is beyond gross)…very little information on this.
Went to two ENT (one young, one old) and same bullshit answers…basically no answers, just take steroids up nose for life. No. Niet. NON!
Will be listening more.
Have a Youtube Page and putting this learning curve together and trying to figure out answers.
Hope to hear from you. Good work!
Thank you,
Rachel Moore
Thank you Rachel! I hope that you were able to put some pieces together on the sinuses going forward. I will be talking more on it in the near future. Stay tuned!
Thanks for the reply.
I have done two videos under Housewives Anonymous on Youtube about this horrible bad taste/sinus infection. Recently my neighbour passed away in this heat wave and that smell got up my nose and it has started alllll overrrr againnnnn! One can NOT state how horrible it is.
Sinus issues are a real epidemic. Look at the number of people doing videos on it. Look forward to your take on this matter.
Oh yes, your show with the dentist in LA really connected a lot OF DOTS FOR ME> well done!
Hey Rachel – glad that my interview with Dr. Maddahi connected some dots – ah that microbiome!
