I am having my first sinus surgery next week.  My CT scan shows all sinuses
except for the sphenoid are completely impacted, infected and or filled
with polyps.  I am also having my deviated septum corrected.  My question
concerns my frontal sinuses because the doctor said he might not be able
to do anything with those.  Is that typical?  I ask because I am being
treated by a military doctor in a military facility and wondered if I am
not getting the best treatment possible?  Or is it likely that he is being
conservative and wants to see if they drain into the lower sinuses?  Any
info/ experience is appreciated.

I have been suffering with severe congestion, headaches and infections for
5 years. I recently DEMANDED that I was referred to an allergist and ENT
because I had had enough!  I went to the allergist and tested negative for
allergies!  I have been taking daily antihistamines for 7 years thinking I
had allergies.  My ENT thinks I still have allergies but told to wait to
pursue blood allergy testing and see how the surgery goes.  Needless to
say I am very leary because of the poor treatment I have received from the
military doctors/hospitals.

Any thoughts or similar situations?  I am so looking forward to the
possibility of feeling normal again and thinking I was depressed because I
was constantly fatigued!
Thanks,
Stef
