Chronic Sinusitis?

About a month ago I had my second sinus infection and I haven't felt myself ever since. My ears feel clogged, neck tension, headaches, face pressure, congestion, and I just feel out of it. I've been to 2 different ENT doctors and an allergist who both said that my sinuses are inflamed but nothing else is wrong. CT Scan showed inflammation in the sinuses but no fluid. I've tried so many things like nose sprays, decongestants, prednisone, neti pots, and antibiotics. Nothing seems to be fixing the issue and I just want to feel normal again. Are these all symptoms of chronic sinusitis or am I just going crazy?

    Hi Joevaz, I feel exactly the same as you, I've been suffering for almost 3 years now, I've had mri and ct scans and it showed I have an obstructed maxillary infundibulum, I'm having an operation in July hopefully....... But it's very hard to believe that so much of the feelings I'm going through is related to that, I feel crazy too.

    I feel ur pain I have been suffering for many year with similar symptoms. I have been diagnosised withchronic sinus.constant inflammation I have been told that my issues r from allergen which r causing the inflammation within my nose.Yes u do feel like u r going crazy sometimes. Especially when u try every thing and still nothing give u consistent relief.

    I just can from an ENT because of the pain I felt in my fore head for about four days. My worst time is usually in the morning. The Ent prescribe a six course of prednisone. He is also sending me for another CT just for a precaution since I have not had one since 2014.

    I know I could not help but wanted u to know u r not alone
