Question : I had a history of sinus problems for years but they had almost disappeared coming to NM. I have had feel other problems that required me to be on ABT. This fall until now has been a mess. My lymph nodes under my right arm became inflamed. I had two teeth become infected, after they where pulled. Now I got a sinus infection, which I haven't had since I left MI. It was bad enough but it went into my eyes. One DR. told me I had a cold in my eyes the pharmacist said I that I had pink eye. My eyes are clear now but the h/a continue. and my eyes continue to hurt. I had a dull h/a since last fall. It on the back right side of my head now spread to my front

Brief Answer:
Further investigation is necessary.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

1. Get a plain CT PNS (Para Nasal Sinuses) and a Sleep Study done.

2. Allergic Rhinitis includes eye symptoms. A skin test such as AllergoSPT should be done.

3. Consult a physician to rue out MEN (Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia) Syndrome which may be one possible cause for headaches.

4. These causes (Sinusitis, Seep Apnea, Allergy, MEN) should be ruled out first. Upload these test results for further treatment options.

I hope that I have answered your queries. If you have any further questions, I will be available to answer them.

Regards.
