After a few sessions Marianne, you will soon get used to it.
Practise makes perfect 😂

I hope so! it wasn't pleasant! It says you can use bottle water as well as cooled boiled water, so you could use that to cool it down

This is such an interesting thread. I’ve always had sinus issues and use Vicks inhaler and nose spray twice daily. I think this is worth trying. How are you and your hubby doing now Hezz?

Hezz, I hope you are okay. I've noticed that you haven't been around for a few days.

Hopefully she's taking a well-earned rest to recover.

Sorry everyone. Unfortunately not a few days rest. In fact the opposite. OH and I have been working at getting our poor old previous house up to scratch to be rented, so lots of scrubbing, sanding and painting over the past week, and more of the same next week. We would have gotten the professionals in but all trades are in high demand/short supply across the whole country and there was about a six-eight week waiting time, so we’ve bitten the bullet and doing it ourselves. I’m not a novice at painting, but OH is and after four full days, I’m still not sure that he’s having fun … yet. I’ve told him that the fun starts when the roller comes out, but I don’t think he’s convinced. So we are having a proper weekend off, and back into it Monday. I’ll be mia next week as well, most likely.
Regarding C-19, we are pretty much recovered. OH has an annoying dry cough still; I find myself a bit light-headed and is the tiredness work or flu related? Who knows. Thank you all for your concerns. xx

We have the same situation with tradesmen here in the US - not good availability and high costs. Hope it all comes out how you pictured it in your mind. Try not to over do it.

I have some sort of cold/sinus thing that I just cannot shake and I am still coughing up balls of mucous. I'll keep it up anyway. How you getting on with the Neti, Marianne, hope you're finding it easier and it's helping.

I hope it clears up soon. I’m Sure you’ve tried loads of stuff, does inhaling steam help in any way? I used to have to do that regularly

No, steam doesn't help either. I am more bunged up than ever after my shower. I have allergic rhinitis I think, I remember seeing it on my medical record. I think I am just allergic to life!! Do you know what causes yours ariella?

Other than my Neti POT, a kettle of boiling water in the sink with a few drops of Olbas oil helps to clear my tubes.

Do you know what causes yours ariella ? Yes, same as you - allergic rhinitis. Hayfever, dust, some animals, certain people…
