Sinus Saga

I finally got the results from my CT scan of my sinuses. Contrary to my dad's obnoxious sarcastic cynicism against all of medical science and practice, there were very meaningful results. The lining of my left sinus is abnormally thick. I have a pocket in my left sinus which currently has a mixture of mildly infected fluid and air. And I have a deviated septum... AND I will be going to an ear, nose, and throat specialist. The problem is NOT allergies as my dad has long suspected and theorized. Once again, contrary to what my dad would think if reads this, this is not a condition that will just go away. Or it might, but that would mean living through at least several more weeklong bouts of fever running up to 103 degrees F, and multiple courses of antibiotics (AHA! evil, evil!). And probably a couple more years of constant sinus infection (it's been a year and a half thus far).
