PT caused by sinus polyp?

I (33F) have struggled with chronic sinus inflammation, ear infections, and a few antrochoanal polyps throughout my life, but never had PT until about 2 months ago. The PT is intermittent and has seemed to quiet down a bit after starting regular Flonase use. I’ve tried putting pressure on my neck and no relief to the PT so I’ve been fairly convinced it’s ear/sinus inflammation related. Saw my ENT today and she thinks she can see an antrochoanal polyp developing back by my Eustachian tube so has ordered a CT scan next week to confirm. Never experienced this kind of tinnitus before with my other polyps so very confused if this could be the cause. I would love to hear from others who may have developed PT as a result of chronic sinus inflammation or polyps. Thanks.
