I had the same exact situation back in 98 or so - head cold that wouldnt go away, kept getting worse tons of meds for more than a month then after a couple visits to ENT - he said its time to clean you out or the pressure will permantly effect your hearing. Its a wierd thing and the amount of guaze they pack in there is insane. While they were in there they found polyps as well and I had them removed. I was a new man after that. I might have been one of those posts you read. Things might have changed procedurally though since then. Recovery was uncomfortable for a couple days for sure and taking out the gauze was very unpleasant but overall I was very glad I did it looking back now. Feel free to PM me - I can give you a ring if you want to discuss.
