Losing the Battle on Sinus Infections

Please help. We are losing the battle on sinus infections. Sam had his second sinus surgery in October and he has already had two sinus infections. We are in a vicious cycle of three weeks of abx, followed by two weeks of good health, followed by sinus infections, and repeat. We do sinus rinses twice a day with saline and budesonide (sp?). We do hypertonic saline through the neb cubs twice a day. Sam just keeps a sinus infection. I am worried that I am going to have to quit work becuase he stays sick. I say sinus infection but they always start with some kind of virus or cold, then immediately go to an infection. His nose does not run. So sinus rinses are the only way anything moves out. Anyone else have similiar problems? Thank you, rosesixtyfive, mother of Sam, 6 years old, ddF580
