Suggest Treatment For Sinusitis With Breathing Difficulty And Chest Tightness

I came to Honolulu from Chicago and began to have bad sinus pains, blocked nasal passages with difficulty breathing. Chest feels very tight and congested with pain behind the center of the sternum. A cough was cured w/prescribed syrup-codiene. Bad sinus pain now alleviated but still feel a growing pain and stuffiness, inhibiting free breathing. Get can t breath feeling when I lay down, so need sleeping pill to sleep, still get up often. Am extremely nervous, anxious, clauterphobic, etc. Never had any of these problems before. Over one month and doctor meds don t cure me. Any ideas--I feel like I am going to die.
