Does anyone on here suffer from chronic sinusitis?


I was recently diagnosed with this and apparently I have had the infection for years. I have been put on Augmentin 875mg 2 times a day for a month.
Mainly Im wanting to know what your symptoms were with the infection when you went to the doctor. I didn't even know I had sinus problems. I was being CT scanned for a brain tumor. =(
The only symptoms I've had are:
*One pupil that stays dilated intermittently

*Severe debilitating headaches (more like debilitating pains)on the side of my head (not my face) that come and go in waves and are not relieved by meds but only by rest or relaxation. Note: No nausea/or vomiting, auras, so this makes me think it's not a migraine

Red, dry eye on same side as the headaches which occurs with the dilated pupil

Has anyone else ever experienced these symptoms?

Thanks for your help - Misty

If you try to diagnose the conditions which are occurring just before the sinus headache, you may find out what you are sensitive to or allergic to. For instance, if the weather conditions are cloudy, foggy, rainy, cold, hot, or the dewpoint is too high, you may be sensitive to changes in temperature. If you get the headaches after exposure to allergens, you have an allergy causing the immune system response of swelling and pain to the sinuses. Then if you eat, the immune response gets worse, lasting days instead of hours.

If you suffer through immune reactions instead of taking medication, and learn what causes it, the reactions can decrease in severity and frequency.

God can help you if you pray to him from the status being "dead," in baptism and being one with Christ in his perfection (resurrection), if you believe. It is just good to pray for help and invite him to give you whatever help you need.

Hope this helps.
