No polys & cysts can grow anywhere in your body. And they can grow back!  After years of dealing with infections I finally pushed and demanded to have something done. In 2000 I had a cat scan, they found a huge cyst up my nose, when the doctor did the surgery he also found polyps behind the cyst as well as on the other side that didn't show on the scan.  I was good for about 1 year, then it all started again. Pain behind the eyes,the back of the head, cheek pain & sore gums 1 infection after the other all year round.

A FEW THINGS TO TRY: for others suffering  

1. I get my hubby to put me a head lock and squeeze as hard a he can, it does help with the pain & pressure, just squeeze hold and release repeat.



2. While sitting in a hot tub, or pool or shower get a mask for snorkeling and pull it on and off slowly, the suction helps reduce the pressure.  (yes hubby laughs at me)



3. Get a super cold compress straight from the freezer put it over the eyes & massage the pressure points in the head.



Good luck to all & I hope the tips help everyone else I know they sound wierd but it works for me.
