Just remember to keep your mouth open while you're using it, or you'll feel like you're drowning. I'm really glad I found my naturopath - she's about as opposite from quack as you can get. And we're about the same age, so we have a lot in common and have fun at our appointments. I hope you can find someone else who isn't a total freakbot. Take care, and I'll be thinking about you, lady. I have a neti pot and it’s quite cool, actually. Just remember to keep your mouth open while you’re using it, or you’ll feel like you’re drowning.

I read the other post also, about your ear and hearing condition. I hope it helps. You're probably sick of advice, especially of the "natural" kind, but have you heard of neti pots? They sell them in Whole Foods and Walgreens. It's a process of nasal irrigation with a little pot that looks like Aladdin's lamp. You mix lukewarm water with one part baking soda and four parts plain salt (not iodized), tip your head sideways over the sink, stick the tip of the pot up your nostril, and pour the water through. If you search Neti on youtube you can find videos people have put up of their neti. Weird. Anyway, you could at least ask you doctor about it. I do wish there was more give and take between natural healers and traditional doctors, so that we could get the best of both. He sounds like a snake oil salesman.
