I also saw my eye doctor today. I started to have blurred vision only in the left eye. When it comes I can not make out words or faces, after two to three days its goes back to corrected 20 20.
I had a cat scan of the neck and it came back as Moderate degenerative disc disease at the C3-C4, C4-C5 C5-C6 C6-C7 with 25 percent degenerative spondylolisthesis at the C7-T1 leve. Could these problems cause Temporal arteritis?
Hello and hope you are doing well.
Understand your predicament. If the sinuses are clogged, there should be evidence of fluid buildup and other features of sinusitis on CT scan. In the absence of which it is unlikely that the sinuses are clogged. And the best diagnosis for this problem is a CT of the sinuses. Another condition which can cause localized pain in the head is Temporal arteritis. It is inflammation and damage to blood vessels that supply the head. Discuss these options with your doctor when you happen to meet him next time.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
This is the third time I've tried to add a comment. Migrane was ruled out. Two MRI's and a Cat Scan, plus a Dr. and two specialists later, and nothing. I believe its a problem with the Deep Sinuses. They are clogged and won't allow the pressure within them to release. And, they will not drain. Though, I really don't know if they are clogged, nor if they ever drain. FWL
Hello and hope you are doing well.
I hope any visual defects have been ruled out as the cause for your headaches. Headaches can be tension headaches, the commonest of the lot, the others are migrainous headaches, those caused due to brain disorders, disorders of the eyes, neck or ears to name a few. If other causes have been ruled out, then it could be migraine. If you have blurring of vision, nausea and see some light flashes it could most probably be due to a migraine. Discuss these options with your doctor when you happen to meet him next time.
