Finished 8 days of antibiotics after 10 days of waiting to make sure it wasn't viral. I'm still gonna finish the last 2 days, but its not going to change things.
It did seem to improve some, I'm not getting headaches and the nasty smell is better, but its still here. Still very mild, just small amounts of yellow mucus from right sinus and that smell, although fainter than it was. Called the doc thinking he might prescribe a different antibiotic, but instead he says its probably viral.
But the whole point of waiting 10 days was to rule out viral, I thought. The saga goes on...dammit.

makes me think it may be the RSV. Both RSV patients in the above had little nasal congestion, same as me, and the infection started on Day 9 of the RSV infection. Mine started on about Day 10.
There are differences though too. They didn't get the chest congestion that I got from RSV. Anyway it gives me hope that it is viral and not a resistant bacteria
