every day is a learning curve

That's true Penguin 😂. The cockapoo sits right in front of me at 10pm every night as much as to say....."time for all 60yr olds (nearly!) to be tucked up  "

Oh creatures of habit, them.  My cocker used to wake slightly B4 9.00 p.m., stretch, go out for a wee then sit by the child gate.  This separated her from the cats' food all day, she was allowed to lick the plates clean for her 'supper' 

I bit my tongue yesterday, now I have a sore throat  hopefully not a virus 

[Ayesha]

Good morning ladies, well what a good laugh that was yesterday, so surreal!!   

CLKD - Difficult to tell what's going on at the moment, once the pain killers wear off the pain comes back but I am only a few days into all of this and I am hoping that by the end of the week there is improvement. But when the pain returns I keep thinking it could be trigenimal neuralgia but really that's me overthinking things as we all do!

My niece had similar symptoms that lasted 3 weeks over Christmas so I am keeping my fingers crossed. 

CLKD, I've tried to answer your pm but it says you have blocked me, I shall go quietly   

[CLKD]

Technology isn't what it was  .


I wouldn't know how to or un-do blocking

Re the viruses, I had an awful virus / cold type thing last Feb. Ended up with such bad sinus pain which I've never had before. Left with it on one side and sensitivity all down left side, post nasal drip that side etc. Have ended up with a steroid nasal spray as GP thinks it triggered rhinitis which has now become chronic. I have never had sinus issues before and now I'm left with a load of allergies I never had before too
 The only other thing that happened the month previously was starting hrt, but it can't possibly be that, it must have been the virus.

Whoops! That's the time I pop up the pub and I'm almost 70. 😂

Omg Taz2, I'm 'only' 49 and after 9pm is a late night for me 🙈🤣
Tbf though, the early waking I get since starting peri means I am so knackered by the time the kids go to bed, I need to go fo bed myself to make sure I get enough hours in! Vicious circle 🤣🙈

If U get sleep then don't worry about when U go to bed.  We are designed to be up with dawn and go to the back of the cave at dusk ;-).

I know after both bouts of 'flu : March 1988 and March 1989 : I was weary for a couple of weeks.  When we had Covid in August we were both SO tired  . So we slept.

The trouble with viruses that attack the sinuses they always cause blockage that is very painful, but if this don't clear up it can turn into an infection. If it dont improve soon maybe you might need antibiotics.
Have you tried massaging the points where you can self drain and help clear the sinuses.  If you go on youtube and put in draining sinuses it shows how to do this by pressing on parts of the face and side of your nose. Sounds daft but it actually works and you can feel it draining. You can do this for earache and blocked eustachian tubes too.

[Penguin]

Great idea re the sinus drainage.
You could also try Neilmed sinus rinse too. Tricky to do but does help.
Also second the suggestion you might end up needing antibiotics especially if the area on your face starts to feel warm to touch x
