Terrible Headaches w/ sinus cyst

[shaynandzeke]

I have been suffering w/ a terrible headache for three weeks.  I spent the last week in the hospital and doctors found all teswt (CT, MRA, MRI and bloodwork) to be normal.  I have neck pain, vision and hearing problems, dizziness, numbness and tigling in the left side.  I went to my PC and he said they did see a cyst in my sinus cavity.  I knew it was there because of prior scans, but was told it was not a big deal.  He said I sould see an ENT.  I did last year and was told to use nose sprays to dry it up which did not work.  Now the cyst is severe and takes up my entire left sinus cavity.  I want to take all my scans to my ENT (which I have an appt with next week) and say I am miserable and here is why when can you remove this?!  I feel it has been this sinus issue that has plagued me for years.  My question is am I over reacting?  Should I rush surgery or wait?  My headaches are still prestent and cannot be tollerated without barbituates or narcotics.  I don't want to take these foever.  Please help!!

I have been suffering now for over a year with headaches,  dizziness, nausea, neck pain and facial numbness.  I was sent to ent where they found a nasal cyst in my left nasal cavity but claimed this can't be causing all my symptoms??? After trying various treatments from ent... Nasal sprays,  amitriptyline and allergy tests... nothing helped.  Ent sent me to neurologist I'm now waiting for my M. R. I scan .

I just curious how many of you have any metal implants?
I've been experiencing all the same symptoms and had MRI which shows maxillary sinus cyst and prominent cervical lymph node and basal ganglia... Going to ENT tomorrow but sounds as if surgery isn't going to help so what next!!? I have a dental implant which I believe to be the cause of all this as it all started when I had it put in...

I had the sinus surgery a few years ago to remove the cyst in my left cavity.  I have one in my right sinus cavity that has been here for a couple of years.  It is starting to bother me now.  I have bee putting the surgery off.  I have since found out that I have a cyst on my thyroid that was found by chance on an MRI I had done for something else.  I am waiting to have my ultrasound to see where we go from here.  I am starting to have sharp pains on the side of my head (temple area) that come and go which concerms me some.  Just not sure if it is due to the sinus cyst or what.  Just want answers with options.

I have been dealing with severe headaches & neck pain for 3 months now...keep getting bounced from Dr to Dr...I've had a MRI & MRA of my head & another MRI of my neck plus blood work & xrays. The only thing that the neurologist told me is that all the lymph nodes in my neck are swollen. I was put on an antibiotic but it doesn't seem to be helping anything & he sent me back to my PCM for a referral to see someone to figure out why the nodes are swollen...the swelling is due to infection but could be literally ANYTHING.

I've also been dealing with high bp, dizziness, jaw pain, some ear pain, severe burning in my left nostril & my upper left, front teeth hurt like crazy. I finally got in to see my PCM & he asked me if the neurologist told me that I have a cyst in my sinus cavity...WHAT?!...NO...He didn't tell me that!! He is sending me to an ENT & a new neurologist.

This whole thing has been very frustrating. None of the Dr's I've seen want to treat my pain with anything that might actually work...I keep getting put on stuff that makes me so groggy that I sleep all day. I'm quite anxious to get to the ENT to figure out a way to make me feel good again. I can't believe that I have found a site with all these ppl going though the same thing as me. I'm sorry y'all have these issues but I am glad to know that I'm not the only 1.
