Q: Sinus Ct Scan Pictures - Pressure Above Throat

asked by: mike2332233 on February 2nd, 2006

I got a sinus cat scan because of constant pressure above the roof of my mouth. I am not sure if the radiologist looked at it at all, and if they did they did not give their impressions. I received a disc with the images, however. My appointment with the ent to get diagnosed is not for another week, and I am getting very anxious to know the results. Could anyone provide some insight? Here are the images (use page up and page down keys to flip through):

i know not to trust advice given on the internet. This is only to ease my mind until my appointment with the ent.

P.S. Tilt was -21.5 degrees, if that helps any.

I called today and found out that the radiologist did in fact give
impressions, I just needed to go and pick them up.

This has been going on for several years, a feeling of
pressure behind my nose and above my left molars. I had gotten tested for
tmj, had an mri done on my brain, and gotten a laryngoscopy, none of which
showed any problems.

Did the problem get resolved

I have a similar problem, that makes it sometimes hard to breath, did you have that problem too ? Was your problem resolved ?

I think I have a similar problem. (Chronic Sinusitis) And my ENT prescribed antibiotics to take for 3 weeks to hopefully stop the infection that just won't heal likely because of irritants in my environment...likely mold spores. Hope you are feeling better!
