Chronic sinus trouble--possible disqualification for transplant?

[RightSide]

About 15 years ago, I got a chronic sinus infection which multiple courses of antibiotics failed to touch.   Then I had two sinus surgeries--one in 1997, and one in 2004.  These relieved symptoms dramatically, but I've never quite gotten rid of these tiny little bits of yellow post nasal drip. 

My ear-nose-throat surgeon doesn't think I have an infection, but other doctors I've asked think that I might still have a low-level sinus infection that persists despite antibiotics and surgeries.

Well, now I've got ESRD, and my neph suggested that I apply for a kidney transplant.  But I'm worried that if I do still have some chronic low-level sinus infection that persists, it might be dangerous to pump myself full of immunosuppressants following the transplant.

Any thoughts? 

P.S.  I mentioned all this to one of the transplant surgeons at the hospital.  He said I ought to consult an infectious disease specialist.

I've had the same issue. Not a barrier.  Talk to an Otolaryngologist.  I have an anti bacterial wash that really helps. I run it whenever I get the little yellow drippies.
