ENT Visit....

he is sending me for a cat scan of the sinuses and then some type of telescopic procedure of my nasal passages when i come back with the films, my question is does this procedure hurt and are there side effects after the procedure????

he also has me on astelin and nasonex and he gave me singulair... I took the astelin and that taste was so nasty and lingered for a few hours, dont know if i can take it, also gave me a bad headache and made me drowsy, any one else had this with taking astelin??

I dont want to take it anymore???? have not taken singulair, hate taking too much drugs, how are you supposed to know what really works if you take them all???....


He also says i may warrant allergy testing if the other exams come back negative...is this normal to do all those procedures first before alllery testing???

Re: ENT Visit....

The cat scan is VERY easy. I also take Astelin and it doesn't bother me, in the least.

Re: ENT Visit....

Are you bending over to spray the Astelin? If not, you are supposed to. That will keep so much from draining into your throat.
