Question

I've had really bad nasal congestion worse on the right side for 2 years now and my CT scan showed polypoidal mucosal thickening in all my sinuses plus a mild S shaped nasal deviation. My ENT put me on Montek 10 mg and Flutiflo nasal spray but I'm not getting much relief. Tried Ayurveda too with no luck. I'm diabetic, hypertensive and hypothyroid on meds - really don't want surgery but need something that'll actually work. What's the best medical treatment option for me?

Chronic sinus congestion with polyps and deviation responds to intranasal steroids,antihistamines,balloon sinuplasty,and possible biologic therapy before surgery.
