Hi everyone, new to these forums and don't really know much about healthcare. Pretty much just have a question about my ailment. About a year ago started getting both quite extensive polyps and a cyst in my neck, still not sure what type of cyst, have had three different diagonoses by three different doctors, firstly thyroglossal, then subaceous, so still not sure which it is. My polyps are into every one of my sinuses and my doctor told me that even with an operation they may not be able to remove the ones in my frontal sinuses. I would like to know what effect smoking has on my conditons, I smoke when I am drinking and now as I am a student this can be quite regularly, and am worried to as whether it can make my condition worse. Am due for both operations at the same time within the next three months, and am just curious to what could affect me, as the doctor that gave me my last scan was reluctant to tell me anything. Also, when i was very young I had both my tonsils and adenoids removed, could this be a cause of the problems now??
Thanks very much for any help given.
Tom
