Its been 4 days since I had my sinus cavities cleared out and widened. Everything seems to be going really well, except that I'm very dizzy and stuck in a head fog. Is this normal, and how long should I expect to have these symptoms? I'm supposed to return back to work 1 week from today, but I'm really stressing and not convinced that'll I'll be better by then.

    I don't know but I would ask your doctor. You can also do a search for a forum called dizzy times.

      I did have dizziness before. I have a Eustachian tube disorder, but dizziness with that was usually brief and manageable.
