What Is The Diagnosis For Mucus Retention Cyst Within Sphenoid Sinus Causing Headache, Facial Tenderness And Congestion?

There is a 1.7 cm mucous retention cyst/polyp identified within the left sphenoid sinus on a recent ctscan of mine. I've had sinus infections, congestion, headaches, neckaches, pain deep behind my eyes, facial tenderness, a off and on hissing sound in the past, and fatigue. What diagnoses would you give me, and/or what further testing should I have? My next ent doctor appt is Jan. 2 and what questions should I ask him.
Thank you, Sincerely Gina.
