I have probably the most severe sinus infection that I have ever had in my life. I don't mind admitting, it took a big man down.
My doc said I got some bacteria in there somehow. The incubation period coincides with a weekend of a lot of diving. I did notice an unusual amount of dryness in my throat and mouth, but I attributed it to the fact that I haven't used the regs I used this weekend much.
The regs had sat for a while, and the tank is due for a visual. Anyone have any experience with this type of thing? Bacteria from the regs or tank? I'm going to tell the guy doing the visual on the tank about this, and I will get the regs serviced also.
Any advise, experience, information about this would be much appreciated. This stuff is nasty, and I'd rather not go through this again if I can help it.
