Last time I spoke with a doctor about sinus issues they just told me to grab some OTC remedy and that was mostly it

The more doctors I see, the more I just feel like a ticket in a queue that needs to be closed out and billed ASAP.
Thank you for saying that, I thought maybe I was just bad at choosing doctors.
The older I get, the more doctors I see, the less each doctor individually does, the more evident that the rapacious copay of my job-provided health insurance will drive me to less health care, perhaps obviating the need for any health care at all, though my executor will be left holding the bag of paying off outstanding bills.
Someone, somewhere has the answers you need. I try tell everyone to not accept "no" or "i don't know" for answers if they're still suffering.

FWIW, eventually had sinus surgery, now do saline rinse every day, astelin antihistame spray changed my life. YMMV. Good luck.
