sinus surgery

[Guest guest]

Dear Inflamtion Group,

Well, the bad news is in. I'm not sure if anyone followed my case for

the past 11 months. I just had another sinus ct scan afew days ago.

The results were horrible!!! Apparently, this thing spread into all of

my sinuses areas and now I have polyps, thickening, in every single

sinus in my head. Now hear this. I went to 7 different ENTs starting

from last August up until this May. 6 of them swore up and down that

(based off of my CT scans at the time which were basically relatively

clear) I did not need surgery. In fact, 2 of them flat out refused to

operate under any circumstance. There was only 1 who wanted to

operate. My current dr. who I started seeing in March (who isn't a

surgeon) mentioned surgery each time. I said I was trying to avoid it.

Last month, he became concerned about my lack of progress so sent me

in for the scan. I said, " but 6 out of 7 surgeons were against

surgery " . He said, that that meant completely nothing. Boy, was he

ever right! Now, whammo, all of my sinuses are messed up. I don't

think half of these dr's know what they're talking about. The scan

results also said it could be from a chronic fungal infection but I've

been on this antifungal stuff for 3 months so I guess it's not doing

anything. As I may have mentioned, was working in a building with mold

spores flying thru the air everyday. Look at me, this is how I ended

up now.

Oh, did anyone see the show on Dateline about the fake drugs coming in

from China? They look so similar to the real drugs that even the

experts can't tell them apart unless they're analyzed in a lab. This

is all we all need.
