The answer is YES. I had polyps so bad that I literally couldn't breathe thru either side of my nose. Up all night clearing my throat, and trying to fall asleep despite that I could only breathe thru my mouth. Complete misery! I ended up going to an ENT, was scoped, and diagnosed with nasal polyps. After steroids, antibiotics, sprays, and a second trip to his office, surgery seemed like the only solution at that point. In a desperate attempt to try one last thing, I ordered a remedy from sinus-pro.com. It helped tremendously! I now have been taking the Sinuswars 13 remedy, and have been feeling great as well. They really do work! I had a polyp so big that when I blew my nose, you could see the bulge in my left nostril from the outside of my nose. It's not visible whatsoever now, and I can breathe much, MUCH better. Just follow the directions and be patient. It didn't bring relief overnight, or even in just a couple days, it took a couple of weeks for me to feel some relief. Hope this helps everyone, because I know first hand that polyps can cause an uncomfortable interruption to everyday life.
