I have it. But, I had it before the heart issues came about. It is connected to lung issues though.

I’ve almost lost my mind…I have been to two allergy clinics and both say that I am Not Allergic to ANYTHING!!! I ve been to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta and the ENT’s there tried cryogenic freezing of my left nostril and then after Covid hit and the opened up again they tried Radiofrequency Ablation to the nerves in that left nostril but neither one did anything to help! I’ve tried three different prescription nose sprays to no avail! My husband is a real sweetheart and doesn’t mind my sniffing…he makes sure that there is a box of Puffs on every flat surface in the house! Last night it was so bad that I lay down on the couch to watch TV and my nose literally ran UP! That is against the law of gravity so I am at my wits end!

My nose drips all the time. It started years ago when I was a hairstylist. While shampooing people it would start to run because my head was tipped down. Not a good situation. It happens all the time when I lean my head, even when gardening I must have tissues available. Don't want to be like the kids who wipe their nose on their shirts. I often have to spit out junk while sleeping. My mom had sinus trouble and passed it on to me, lol.

How? What are your lung issues? I see a pulmonologist regularly but She has never said anything about them being connected?

Yes. I’ve just about lost my sense of smell.
