A member asked:

Cat-scan sinuses- moderate mucosal thickening of sphenoid, ethmoid, l maxillary. does sinusitis involve all these areas or is this a bad case?

Sinusitis: Yes, sinusitis can involve multiple sinuses. See your nearest ENT doctor to discuss this problem. I assume that you already have since you have had a CT of your sinuses ordered by someone.
