Sinus, Bad Breathe, Prescribed Nasonex Spray. Ct Scan Done, Minor Mucosal Thickening. Any Suggestion?

Hi,

I have had problems with my sinus since Oct 2012, which began a month after I moved to a new apartment. The apartment is brand new, and the area is a bit drier than normal. I started to develop bad breath. I was prescribed nasonex spray for the nose which after i finished using, i noticed the bad odor from the nose as well. I didnt take it all seriously until about 2 months ago because the nose odor is pretty strong now, and its quite embarassing.
I tested positive to h.pylori about 2 months ago when the doc. did a breath test. I took antibiotics but i dont think the h.pylori is causing my bad breath from the nose and mouth. I can feel mucus drip to my throat and also have white tongue.
I did a sinus Ct scan about a month ago and the only diagnoses was 'minor mucosal thickening along the floor of the left parasinus/sinus.
I have tried many things, even just finished a saline nasal spray.
