Nasonex and sinus infection

My son has epilepsy. Last year I remember him being put on antibiotic and nasonex for his sinus infection, (Sept. 2008) he had 13 tonic clonic seizures in one day!
This year, he has been put on antibiotic and nasonex again (2 sprays in each nostril twice a day) and he had 4 tonic clonic seizures in one day!
I believe it is from the nasonex that his seizures has increased so much. He has been constipated, swallowing like his throat hurts, very swollen sinuses, acts like he is depressed, squints his eyes like he has a headache. The worse thing is he cannot tell me something hurts, he cannot communicate much at all because he is special needs. I can only go by his body language or if he is running a fever. This morning I did not give him the nasonex, I used only saline spray to rinse his sinuses. After reading everyone's side effects I went and threw all the nasonex in the trash!! My son will go to ENT on Monday and the ENT better not tell me to put my son back on nasonex because I will not do it!! I will only be using saline spray from now on on my son's sinuses.

I used it on and off for about two years, and recently started taking it again due to allergies... I use it sporadically, when I feel I need it. Anyway, I have had a problem about 3 times since the beginning of the year with horrible congestion, and tightness in my chest and lots of flem. It's like a sinus infection without the fever, that turns into bronchitis, but it's not that. I realized over the weekend, that this happens every time I have horrible allergies and use Nasonex. It takes weeks to get over the symptoms. I have decided after reading all of the other posts to NOT take it anymore...

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 used nasonex for a month feb 2006 and experienced terrible insomnia and palpatations at night and i also had optic neuritis in my left eye. Is the ON to do with tiredness from not sleeping. All stopped once nasonex stopped. Taken beconase since, however i have had a sinus infection and optic neuritis again april 2007. Is there a relationship between corticosteroids and optic neurits?
