The following denominations are most supportive of gay members, including ordaining and hiring gay clergy: Metropolitan Community Church, United Church of Christ, Unitarian Universalist Church, The Episcopal Church. In addition, individual congregations of the following churches are accepting of gay members: United Methodist Church, American Baptist Church, The Presbyterian Church, The Lutheran Church.

Even if your congregation is not accepting, every large denomination has within its membership an organization that both supports gay members and tries to promote acceptance of gay people to the policy makers within the denomination. You can find a list of these resources at the following website:

Do any of you have other resources to recommend to visitors?

I'll try to keep this short.
I am 21 years of age, and for the past five years, I used to get chronic strep throat, and then they put me on allergy medication. However, I still get a sinus infection at least once, if not twice, a month. I am on allergy medication and a prescription strength version of Mucinex to combat the sinus infections, not to mention a regular mutli-vitamin, vitamin C (etc) and constant fluid intake.
I feel as though I have done everything I can do to prevent these chronic sinus infections, but to no avail.
Is there a doctor who is in a specific field of medicine that you could recommend I look into? Thus far I have seen an allergist, ears nose and throat, and an internal medicine physician. Or perhaps should I revisit them?
I am really at my whit’s end. My parents are exacerbated by it as much as I am.
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Thank you
