I've been struggling with chronic sinus problems for years. I'vew been to multiple MD's with no results. What are some resources for Buddhist/holistic medicine?

I don't know if it's Buddhist, but have you looked into acupuncture? Haven't had it myself but I hear it yields great results.

Do you have a local health store, or one that has an herbal and homeopathic section? I find the staff of these types of places are often great resources, and may be able to point you to reputable acupuncturists and herbalists in your area.

Both my uncle's and friend's chronic sinus issues went away when they went off dairy, and I have another friend who's sinuses benefitted immensely from going gluten-free. Fortunately there's no health danger in trying these approaches, so it's a safe experiment, for starters (and sometimes clears up other things as well, such as chronic joint pain and, as my niece calls it, "the bloat.")

Where do you live? There may be a Tibetan doctor in your area. Exploring the possibility of a food-allergy source is also a good idea.
