    hi I have never had any sinus surgery but have chronic inflammation in my sinuses. What kind of procedure have you had?

    My sinus issue headache and fatigue stem from an auto immune disorder.

    Did you have the headaches before the surgery or are they new? The fatigue could be to do with the anaesthetic, it sometimes takes a while to get over it. Did you have antibiotics to take after? Do you know which ones? Some of these can cause extra problems.

      no headaches like this prior, these are pressure headaches on forehead, took amoxil for only one week and no other meds. i am still very congested so maybe this is the cause

    hi there. Im sorry for your trouble. How are your teeth and gums? I had trouble with what o thought was a sinus problem but it turns out it was a dead tooth that had been capped a while back and the root was dying causing simular problems to sinus pain. Just a thought. Hope I could help.

    I had sinus surgery in late June and I would say it took me a solid month plus or so to fully recover and feel like myself. I also experienced pressure headaches ans felt very fatigued so I would say that it's most likely pretty normal. If it goes on for much longer I would call your doctor.
