Chronic Sinusitus, polyps, deviated septum

I was diagnosed as having chronic sinusitus, nasal polyps and a deviated septum.  I am tired all the time, get shaky, sore throat, ear pain, can often hear my heartbeat very loudly in my ear, feel really slow and dumb, confused, pressure behind the eye, vision changes, my eyes hurt all the time, dry, gritty feeling and almost feel like I'm staring.  I feel like my voice changes (which nobody can tell).  This makes me very nervous when I go to talk and I can feel the drainage, but nobody else can.  Is it possible this has lead to my depression and anxiety and could this be fixed with surgery?  I just don't feel I get any refreshed sleep.  I've had a sleep apnea test and they stated I don't have it, but I woke up every 3 minutes almost on the dot and would fall right back into the deepest sleep possible.

Sounds like you have fluid behind your ears, even allergies with symptoms like that. Perhaps seeing an allergist along with a good ENT doctor would be a good idea to do. If allergies are complicating things, then there are good drugs out there to help you "dry" things up in your sinuses and elsewhere. I certainly can understand your anxiety...I hope that you get answers soon. Sunny
