Please tell me styes and sinus infection arent related with mucormycosis. wierd smell in nose. reaccurent styes. fatigue. weakness. why?

Probably not: Mucormycosis is a serious, potentially fatal infection, which is typically seen in ill individuals, particularly very poorly-controlled diabetics. Sinus infections, in general, can cause "weird" smell sensations. Styes are relatively common blockages of oil glands in the eyelids. Fatigue and weakness are non-specific symptoms. In any case, i would recommend seeing a doctor.

Mucormycosis: Why jump to such a dire conclusion? Mucormycosis (Zygomycosis) can be a very serious disease caused by inhaled fungal spores. It can infect your nose, sinuses, eyes, , brain, digestive tract and lungs. It usually occurs in people who have significant immuno compromise. If anyone gets it they would be quite ill.
