Ostenecrosis - foul smell

I wanted to let you know that recently I started to smell that foul smell (similar to last summer) about Jerry. I first noticed it last Sunday (03/18/07). Jerry got into the car to drive to Church, and I could smell that foul odor. Throughout the week, I did not smell it again, until Sunday (03/25/07). Again, we were driving to church. After church we were having lunch and Jerry needed to blow his nose. When he did, it was a disgusting smell, It was so bad I had to leave the room. Jerry told me that he couldn't smell it, but he did say during the week, he smelt it. He also mentioned, during the week he saw some yellowish stuff coming out of his nose when he blew his nose, but wasn't seeing it recently. Prior to leaving for our Hawaii vacation (February), Jerry was on antibiotics, but maybe he's getting another bacterial infection in his sinus cavity because of the Ostenecrosis (ONJ)? Jerry's doctor is prescribing another antibiodic, for this infection. The doctor also mentioned that we may need to get another x-ray of his sinus again, as well.
