Thick yellow post nasal drip, why?

The ENT thought I could just go ahead and quit doing the rinses since there was no improvement. In fact, I have often felt worse with nasal rinses.

He had no clue for next steps (this was my second ENT, as my surgeon ENT gave up on me after 6 weeks and referred me to a chronic pain clinic -- the pain is the least of my complaints).

@303wendy-

You can take a listen to this if too would like.

Migraine- “sinus type” headache.

This is why I am very against sinus surgery- especially in women.

PCP/ENT do not take the time to navigate through this with thorough history. Every person especially women, should be screened with a Neurologist and educated on migraine type sinus headache before ever moving forward with surgery .

It should truly be a protocol.
I believe people who were wrongly diagnosed due to the autonomic symptoms that present in nasal/sinus area can suffer greatly with the type of pain triggered from throwing off this entire system.

This is why many Neuros are referred patients from ENTs AFTER sinus surgery, which is very backwards.
