I had the same problem.... Was congested beyond belief for an entire year. My doctor had me do a food sensitivity test. It showed I was eating a lot of things that I was sensitive to(not allergic). Once I started to elliminate those foods my congestion cleared. I was also sensitive to yeast (candida) and did the candida diet. It has been 3 years and I can tell when I have eaten things I shouldn't because I will start to become congested again. The blood test I had done was the ALCAT.

Saline drops, morning and night, year round. Can be had at drug store. I suffered from sinusitis for years. (Got so bad once, I used garlic juice up my nose - you don't want to go there! ) My sinuses still drive me crazy but saline (salt water) keeps me breathing, helps loosen and drain so you can actually blow your nose and clear your head along with the pain in your face and teeth. Colds, flu and viruses are less miserable. Since there is no drugs (only salt and H2O), you can use this as often as needed without side effects or lessening its efficiency.
