  • Sinus Problems involving vomiting?

    Throughout my life, I have had some bad sinus problems. I have had headaches, congestion, sinus infections, etc. But since mid january, these sinus problems have developed into black and blues under my eyes, aches on my upper cheeks and around my nose, as well as vomiting. I usually vomit whatever is in my stomach but if its empty, it will be mostly saliva or mucous, but once it was a small amount of blood (after dry heaving for a period of time)

    I visited an ENT specialist in march and he said I had a deviated septum and polyps, and prescribed some antibiotic and a nasal spray. He gave me the option of surgery, but stressed that my polyps would probably come back. He seemed to ignore the fact that I throw up constantly (atleast 5 times a week).

    What I am getting at is, does a bad sinus infection or bad sinuses actually cause vomiting? It usually occurs after a change in temperature, or a wind gust. My saliva become really sticky as if its gonna contain mucous, but it is just clear. It has become a nuisance because I play sports constantly and it makes doing any physical activity nearly impossible. I am going back to the ENT in may (after school ends), but I feel like the nausea is not linked to the sinus problem (because my ENT pretty much shook off the fact that I vomit).

    Please do not respond if you only feel like you know sinus problems because you might have had some. I just want some good information from people with decent credentials.

  • why is part of the environment poisonous?

    Some local trees have berries that are poisonous...people need to wash fruits and vegetables before eating such objects...overall, why are these things made by the earth harmful towards society? I know there are many things happening towards the environment that can kill not only human life, but other life as well. These things are done by people, and not by planet earth. Why are there fungus, bacteria, etc, hitting the plants and fruits of the earth if it injures and sickens the animals of the world. I really do not get it. This is partly a question pertaining god, but if god really did make the environment we live in today, why would he/she made a world where certain bacterias infected the lives of others.

    Im only thinking about this because I went in my fridge today and saw molded bread, and watered down my vegetables and fruits because I didn't want those to get bad as well. It's said that we are currently ruining the environment while various lifeforms have the right to infect us? It makes no sense to be honest...

  • basketball leagues other than nba in the US?

    never knew there was so many, how good are these leagues compared to the NBA. I understand that any NBA would beat any given team from these other leagues, but can say the top d-1 teams beat these teams. Im talking about the CBA, ABA, USBL, IBL and whatever else there is out there.

    Also, can anyone describe how these leagues came to be? There seems to be so many different leagues and they all seem to divide and break into other leagues. No sure what im asking here just some more information on the matter.
