Anyways, just thought i'd pass these two products along for those of you who nasal douche like I have been doing religiously to stave off surgery/sinus headaches, etc.


To me the main product I use is way superior to the nettie pot type kits because it allows you to flush with whatever force you want:

I use the regular kit, and have been eyeing the hypertonic packets they sell for this.


Here is the other product I use:

<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.alkalolcompany.com/

</a>

The alkalol stuff is neat because it contains many essential oils to kill off bacteria and loosen mucus. The stuff is very refreshing. My regimen is I mix up a regular neilmed douche but add a good amount of alkalol to it with a regular packet, then do that to start off my day. Then at night I do another douche but just regular neilmed without the alkalol.


I used to have crippling sinus headaches and other CF related sinus crap going on, now, all day my sinuses are clear and im digging it.


ALL HAIL DOUCHING!!!


If you currently douche regularly, look into the alkalol stuff. You can find it at specialty stores. The local mom n pop pharmacy place carries ours. I have yet to see it at any of the big chain stores though.

Right now, I use the NeilMed Sinus Rinse bottle and pre-mixed salt packets. I have been thinking about getting this though:

It got rave reviews from one of the CFers on this board.

Thanks, I've been having killer sinus headaches lately and the alkalol stuff sounds refreshing. Now if I could just get "someone" who puts rocks and leaves up his nose to sit still long enough to do a nasal rinse. But will just have to settle for the hypertonic simply saline spray for now.
