Sinus surgery

reply to post by nixie_nox

You are very welcome.

Mine (pressure) eased up a bit before the surgery but was starting to come back.

If you get the chance soon though get it done. It has really been an improvement.

I had a follow up about a week after the surgery. They told me to do a sinus rinse daily (to help with clearing out scabs and such) and they would see me back in about a month.

I go back for that visit in about a week. I have had no issues from it as of yet though. I plan to keep track throught the year to see how well it did.

I had the surgery about 10 years ago. After the surgery I could breath great and my sinus headaches went away.
I still get them but only a few a year as opposed to a few a week.
A few days ago I went back to my nose doc and was inquiring about getting the surgery again because I was having breathing problems again. He looked in my nose and took some CT scans and decided on an easier option. He gave me a few cortisone shots right inside each nostril. Within a day it shrunk down and I can breathe great again. I would recommend it to anyone that is having breathing problems.
