Cancer or Sinusitis? The Effect of 25 Years of Ignoring Facts. This is the opening overview that recently published in a medical journal.
“Chronic granulomatous invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (CGIFRS) is an uncommon disease pathology seen in immunocompetent patients. The most common causative fungal agents reported in the literature are members of the Aspergillus species. CGIFRS may be mistaken for sinonasal malignancy because of its invasive pattern (1). Here is what CGIFRS means.
Chronic-all the time
Granulomatous-white blood cells attempting to defeat the infection begin collecting and granules form.
Invasive-begins invading surrounding tissues
Fungal-NOT bacterial or viral
Rhino-nose
Sinusitis- an inflammation of the tissues lining your facial sinuses, usually caused by viruses, bacteria or allergies.
In 1999, The Mayo Clinic confirmed that various fungi do, indeed cause chronic sinusitis. As a matter of fact, at that time, 96% of the patients, to the researchers’ surprise, had fungus in their sinuses (2) . Yet as this recent paper proves, 25 years later, fungi in the nasal sinuses regarded as “an uncommon” event. This is sad, but not surprising. The important part of this is that you are reading the facts, and you are now armed with scientific information to take to your doctor if antibiotics are being constantly prescribed for your sinus infections. Antibiotics tend to fuel yeast/fungal infections, so they are counterproductive when aimed at fungus.
More importantly, this recent paper states that fungal infections of the sinuses can be mistaken for cancer. Please be careful out there! Ask your doctor to rule-out fungus first!
