Really bad allergies and possible sinus infection.

No Allergies - Sinus Infection? Zyrtec?

• I had a blood test done and the doctor said, "I got back the inhalent allergy blood test and you did not show any signs of any allergies. You are not allergic to pollens, house dust mite, mold, cat or dog." First of all I am 34 years old and for at least 2 decades I have been claiming to have allergies! But now apparently I do not? Instead, I was sick with a head cold?!?! According to the blood test this is true, but I swear the zyrtec as been helping (I take it at night). But I should discontinue using it right? I mean, what is it helping? And all these sinus infections....what does that mean? Can a cold turn into a sinus infection? I thought I had allergies and they caused the sinus infection (which I get about 3-4 times a year). But if allergies are not the cause, then what is???????

  Have you tried getting your mattress sanitised? As you sleep on it for eight hours (or so) each day, if there is anything in it, it will cause you ongoing issues.
