Does anyone have a real cure???

I just started with this issue about 5 days and wouldnt wish it on anyone. They say its a fungal sinus infection and usually antibiotics wont cure it. I suppose you need a wash or some type of surgery, I've looked everywhere. If in deed its a type of bacteria or fungus that is causing it and its stuck and blocking a passage then we gotta wash it out and kill the source. I tried HYDROGEN POROXIDE (HP) and saline it flushed a lot of mucus butt its not the mucus thats our issue its the fungus or infection that we need to disinfect and flush out. I saw some improvement but it hurts like hell when you do the HP up the nose I also gargled it deep in my throat then flushing or gargling with water or mouthwash there after. The smell is still there and I want to say it smell like puss, sometimes like burning ****. I gonna try a natural approach and buy that Sinus Doctor thing thats on the web. Ill let you guys know if it worke good luck and its ggod to know thats their some emotional support out there.

Do this pranayam for 30 minutes daily, twice a day, for 30 days. This will flush your nostrils all the way. The left nostril is chandra nadi(cold) and the right is surya nadi(hot), and your body systems will get balanced. Let me know when you start to notice the benefit of pranayam.
Build up your timing gradually.If you feel tired or dizzy, stop and resume after one minute.
Anulom Vilom pranayam –
Close your right nostril with thumb and deep breath-in through left nostril  
then – close left nostril with two fingers and breath-out through right nostril  
then -keeping the left nostril closed  deep breath-in through right nostril
then - close your right nostril with thumb and breath-out through left nostril.
This is one cycle of anulom vilom.
Repeat this cycle for 15 to 30  minutes twice a day.
Children under 15 years – do 5 to 10 minutes twice a day.
You can do this before breakfast/lunch/dinner or before bedtime or in bed.Remember to take deep long breaths into the lungs.You can do this while sitting on floor or chair or lying in bed.

Who is they?  If you haven't been to an ENT, I'd recommend going, as there might be a physical blockage creating a pocket of infection.

If you have been to an ENT, they are correct, there is no definitive anti-fungal at this time.

A regular sinus irrigation won't work either, because gravity prevents getting saline to your upper sinuses.  A Sinus flush will defeat gravity:

The Flip-Turn Sinus Flush is mildly risky, because you have to bend over to do it, preferably in a shower, but you can also do it outside on soft ground, or you can kneel down and lean over a bathtub with the shower running.

Would not recommend the peroxide either, as it can mess up the good bacteria balance in your sinuses and make it worse.

If there's no improvement after 10 days of sinus flushing, stop.  Then you may have other issues, discussed on the following forums.

Finally, search for an article with this title, to see what's going on in the world of anti-fungals.  Search also for Jens Ponikau, he is the expert, so far.
