I am researching information about my earache and neck and sinus problems. Found your post. I realize it is an old post, but was wondering if you found a cure?
Ask his Dr to order a BAER test to check for an Acoustic Neuroma. It's a small tumor of the 8th cranial nerve. Here's a link;

I had daily migraines that were triggered by a spenoid sinus infection. The doctors wanted to use surgery to get a culture from the cyst in the spenoid sinus but i eventually tried azithromycin (z pak) and the headaches went away. Did not need surgery! Try staying on azithromycin for as long as you can before getting surgery on cyst or polyps. Surgery will not stop the headaches!
