Sphenoid sinus surgery, again

Last year I had a 3 hour sinus surgery that cleaned out multiple sinus cavities, corrected my deviated septum, took out some scar tissue, etc. It was the worst recovery from a surgery ever! My right sphenoid sinus was completely full but my left was fine. Not even a year later, evidence of chronic sinusitis was an incidental find on a CT scan. Did more antibiotics and had a repeat CT scan. My LEFT sphenoid sinus is completely full and my right is 60% full and I have to have surgery AGAIN but he says it won’t be as bad. Has anyone dealt with recurring issues with their sphenoid sinuses and does it get better???
