I think I have a cold. I thought it was hayfever but no drugs are touching it. So I took desperate measures and decided to try the nose bidet. Unfortunately I did not have on hand the handy little neti pot But after doing some reading I figured out an old mayonnaise squeeze bottle would do.
some lukewarm water, a little salt, a sink, tissues and i was ready. I didn’t know what to expect at all but it just poured out. When I felt it running down my throat I tipped my head slightly forward and was easy to adjust. My sinuses thanked me. Instead of a heap of drus i did this twice during the day and was really surprised how well it worked.
Please note the picture in this link could give you the heebee jeebees. it isn’t me by the way but gives a pretty accurate idea of how it happens.
And a quick update on my bird Sunny. he is back at the vet. Took a downward turn today and he is spending the night being monitored. The vet was surprised as I was. I am sure he will be fine but it is a worry.



AAAAARGHH! I tried this once to help sinusitis and it HURT!!!Did the trick though – I used a small teapot and prayed no-one would walk in and see me!
No it didn’t hurt. Apparently if it hurts the water is too cool and you may need to add a pinch of baking soda.
It gave great relief though.
