I supposedly got a nasal bacterial infection two years ago. 4 months ago I was put on Nasonex even though the doctor still didn't know if my 'infection' was bacterial (tried several antibiotics kept coming back) or fungal, or viral.
The first six weeks I got colds for the 1st time. Hey! the Nasonex was smell free. Went to see doc after 6weeks. Ran out of Nasonex. Was prescribed more only to get the Spanish version Nasomet. Just a different brand name I was told. It had an awful light nail polish smell...like acetone. Since using it at the prescribed lower dose my nose is bleeding and clotting and hardening or the nostrils. Burning, whistling smaller nasal passages.
When I had the original infection a had a week of sinus infection headache. Now I ger persistent creeping sinus headache...not a full one. ut it never seems to go away. I'm now scared of Nasomet/Nasonex and want to come off it.

I had terrible sinus problems combined with my deviated septum. Swollen nostrils, constant nasal drip, couldn't sleep at night, and terrible sore throat in the morning. Started taking nasonex two months ago... Stopped all my problems in a few days. After two weeks I was only spraying each nostril once about 2-3 times a week. My periods are always every 28 days and my past period was 10 days late, I am still waiting for this months period (over a week late). I realized it has to be the nasonex. Along with menstrual problems, I have had terrible nightmares, acne problems (for the first time ever, I'm 24), a few nosebleeds, headaches that have lasted over 4 days, and itchy skin. I didn't put it all together until I saw this website. I will not be spraying my nose again, from now on I will be using the nedi pot.
