I had my nose operated on 9 years ago (deviated septum) and ever since then I have had face pain around my nose and eyes plus constant headaches.. Checked back with doctor and he did not see anything wrong. About 3 years ago the pain got worse covering my whole face and back to my ears. Also my face is hot with no temperature. Doctors have tried a lot of things with no good results. Now my headaches have gotten worse so I just had a CT done and the bridge of my nose is "crushed" (I am 71 and nothing I can think of that would have caused that). I have a consult coming up, but would like to be prepared before it so I don't have to be in pain any longer that I have to be. It seemed like everything started with the first operation 9 years ago, but pain has increased since then and nothing found to help. Hopefully this CT will help the doctors, but would welcome any options from someone the clinic. Thanks
