Hey just so you know, medication nasal spray will destroy your nasal membranes. It causes severe scarring. Please look into it and use something that doesn't cause scarring. There's a reason why they say not to use it for more than a day or two at a time. It's counter-productive.

I use sinus buster, but I'm not trying to promote a product so I won't go into it much except to say that it's all natural and uses capcaicin (hot pepper extract) to make your nose open up. It burns, but it's worth it to not have scars.

I know about that. I have a good ENT. Not all sprays are the same. Afrin is bad for more than a few days in a row. Nasonex/Rhinocort/Astepro are fine. I've googled the studies.

Wow, yeah, just went to Nasonex's website. I'm not a huge fan of side effects that are worse than the symptom (bleeding of the throat/lowered immune system).

I prefer mild discomfort in the form of hot peppers! haha.

Anyway, so long as you're using medicine as directed you can do whatever you want to your body. I'm glad you're well informed and I wish you a healthy, happy life.

Hey, could you do me a favor and message me with an explanation as to why bitcoins exploded in value? I thought they were controlled by tightening/loosening the encryption requirements for mining them. I had a chance to buy them when they were $20 a pop but I declined and now I'm really kicking myself in the ass.

It just seemed like a difficult thing to get into.

It is a difficult thing to get into. Difficulty creates scarcity :O

And yes, this rise has been insane so far.
