I'm in splint therapy, soft diet, etc but this is really getting under my skin.

My ear pain isn't as bad as it was but the other symptoms haven't changed at all.

The current game plan is get the joints stable and then get me in some heavy bands to fix my bite. It's awful. None of my teeth meet anywhere but when my dentist relaxes my jaw most of my lower teeth go way behind my front teeth and the rest is a cross bite. He said there's no way he's put me into braces until my joints are more stable than they are right now.

The rest of my symptoms are just non stop. They've been worse today because my daughter and I had the same stomach virus yesterday and most of today and being dehydrated and in pain before the viral stuff just doesn't mesh well!

I get sharp shooting pains in my head often,I wish I knew what caused this. I hate it so much to..It drives me crazy, I usually tie a bandanna around my head really tight to help ease the pain..I have told doctors about this and I have never gotten an answer on why this happens..sometimes it just hits me like lightning, and make me fall to my knees..

take care,
