Help. I have daily headaches. Some are true migraines. But I believe some are sinus related, particularly since I can get the headache to switch and settle on a side depending on which side I sleep on and let my sinuses drain on. I can feel the pressure in my sinuses. I do have allergies particularly in the spring and fall. The answer the doctors have come up with in regard to this issue is to give me a decongestant (Flonase in one instance, Allegra in the other). But both times as soon as my sinuses started to clear, I experienced tremendous pain particularly in my nose when I breathed in air. This pain would then spread into my upper sinus cavities. I tried an anti-inflammatory for a month, but it did no good. The pain was unbearable and I had to give up. I want to see an ENT but my doctors just want to try other types of decongestants. I don't think this is the right solution. Does this sound familiar to anyone? What might or can an ENT do - would it just be more of the same? I have never seen one before. - Thanks.
