I have allergies and I am on Zyrtec and Singulair for them.  But lately I have been having horrendous sinus headaches.  I already take Tylonel Arthritis everyday due to joint pains and I can't take antihistamines like Sudafed because they make my heart race.  Is there any other alternative out there that I can try? Oh and I can't take Nsaids because of my Ulcerative colitis.

Have you tried a nasal steroid? I've taken many different kinds over the years for my sinuses.
Naseonex
Flonase
Patiense (sp?)

I've tried Flonase and Nasonex in the past. Every single time I use them, I get the most horrendoud cold that turns into bronchitis. Not sure if it's a coincidence or not but now I'm afraid to try them again! LOL

Has anyone had success with a neti pot to relieve sinus headaches?

Sherry,
Hope your feeling better soon...the neti pot might help, I tried it but can't use it anymore, it made my sinsus bleed..my nasal passages are too small...I do use a saline nasal spray and that helps...but I've been crying a lot lately and my sinsus are hurting pretty bad..
Lots of soft healing hugz coming your ways...

Aww Char honey, why have you been crying? Is it the pain? Maybe that is why my sinus headaches picked up; never connected the dots. I have been crying lately too because my Gma just recently passed away. My sinus headache seems to be a bit better today but I might try a saline nose spray to see if that helps.
