Friday, November 06, 2009 at 03:59 PMIs Dr. Guyuron doing yours as well? Sinus surgery ? I can give you some ideas of what to expect the night of surgery if so.

Friday, November 06, 2009 at 08:28 PMno i'm seeing the same doctor that took my daughters tonsils out years ago. he told me that he couldn't guarentee results, but that since i average 6 or so sinus infections a year, and have a deviated septum that causes over a 75% blockage on one side, that at the least it would help with the sinus problems.
my motto is that if it won't hurt or kill me i'm game to try it!

Friday, November 06, 2009 at 09:35 PMWe had gone so many routes over the last 6 years, meds, brain wave studies, herbs, vitamins, biofeedback, allergy testing, food avoidance. I read about Dr. Guyuron and decided to make an appt, even though it was a 7 hr. drive for us and NOT in our insurance plan. He had us get CT scans to bring in with us. When he looked at them, he told us what he saw and made the recommendation. He was the first person in 6 yrs who ever pointed us in this direction. So far so good. 10 wks migraine free is amazing for him. If you have sinus problems and if you pain is behind your eye like my son's was, then there's a good chance you could be helped. Good luck !

Hello, and welcome to MyMigraineConnection.com!
I'm happy to hear this surgery worked for your son, but we know of three people who have undergone this type of surgery. They were all very happy afterward -- for several months, when their Migraines returned. This is because Migraine is a genetic neurological disease thought.
This procedure may be successful for some people, but certainly not for all.
