Re: [chronicdailyheadache] New to the group; here's my story. Not many guys here...

Hello Mike,
I've had CDH for about 17 years. Unfortunately I don't have any great
suggestions for you. I had sinus surgery about 10 years ago and it didn't
help at all with the headaches. It was a very painful recovery and I'm sorry
I did it. The ENT of course thought it would fix my headache problem. I
think it actually made it worse. I wouldn't recommend it. I've tried many
other meds and procedures like everyone else. I take norgesic forte which
helps some in addition to the Zoloft. Are you on an antidepressant? It's
usually standard procedure for CDH. I had to quit my full time job as a
graphic designer which I loved. Good Luck to you and all of us.
Carolyn

Hi Mike, Has anyone checked out your sinuses? Have they done a head CT for this specific investigation? There is the chance you may have a chronic infection...

Rebecca: Thanks for the suggestion. I've always thought I had a long term sinus infection but several well respected ENT's have told me there's nothing there....
