Sinusitis/conjunctiv: Sorry, cannot attach anything, so timeline hasn't been received. Also limit in number of symbols. Please rephrase question. "Recently saw ENT and he noted that a........." is where the narrative ends. I am glad you are seeing an ENT specialist. Hopefully, cultures have been done and treatment with appropriate antibiotics or other treatments begun. I would guess resistant Strep. pneumoniae.

May be: may be coincidental or connected problems. I did not read that you had seen a Dentist. Infected upper teeth can spread, causing sinus and/or eye infections, and continue to spread from there. Please see Dentist ASAP. This can be very dangerous.

Also see a dentist: You may have multiple independent issues or you could have a dental (or other) infection that is the root cause of your symptoms. We are missing part of your post but it is good that you saw an ENT. Once you get a dental evaluation, you should be on your way to getting a diagnosis and treatment pan. Good luck!

Not sure what the: ENT noted but I suggest that you see a dentist for the tooth/gum infections and follow the advice of the ENT for the other concerns. Do not delay.
