Hi. I've suffered with this for several years now and all along thought it was sinusitis. I was even diagnosed with chronic sinusitis in 08 and i went back to ent recently ready to have the surgery only to be told that i no longer have it!

The symptoms i am experiencing are even worse and the consultant thinks it could be neurological. She has prescribed me amitryptaline. I have a chronic tension headache that is migraine like in some ways and some days (like today) i can feel really ill, generally i am weak and tired and light headed and a bit nauseous. My memory and concentration is poor and it all seems to be related to however bad the tension in my head is; as it gets worse so do the other symptoms. It can be overwhelming. It's never been as bad as it is right now and i'm contemplating going to the hospital but i don't know what they could do and i'd be sat there for hours no doubt.

Does this sound like chronic sinus migraine? That's the main question. If anyone can relate to what i'm saying that will reassure me somewhat and i'll wait to see the doctor tomorrow. Thanks

TJ

Btw i've had full bloodworks, tried various medications and about every naturopathic remedy available and nothing has had any effect on the symptoms. Cured the sinusitis though! I do think it's neurological myself which would explain why the sinusitis has gotten better but the symptoms have remained. Cheers.
