Just looking for some opinions/reassurance I guess.
For the past seven weeks on and off I have had mild toothache-like pain on the upper left side, earache and fullness in my ears, mild headaches, feeling sick as hell in the mornings, pain in my neck near my glands mostly on left side, post-nasal drip. I've had a telephone appointment with a nurse at my GP practice who prescribed beconase nasal spray which I've been taking for just two days so no difference yet.
For those that have had sinus problems in the past does this sound like a sinus problem? I continuously swing between thinking it's a sinus problem and then the next minute convinced it's toothache. Last night it felt like all my teeth on the left side (upper and bottom) were really sensitive especially to cold water and aching although often over the last few weeks the pain has felt more centered on one or two teeth that are next to each other (and one of those tooth also has a large filling). Last night my teeth were aching so bad I would have swore blind it was toothache but this morning I'm convinced again it's my sinuses. It's driving me crazy.
Normally, I'd just go to the dentist to ask them to have a look at my teeth but at the moment they are only seeing emergencies and the process to get an appointment sounds like a real pain in the arse (I'm in Scotland).
Anyone able to help put my mind at rest that this sounds sinus related and I'm not going to have to get a tooth out!
