Question by Sharon: I think I have tmj and terrible headache! Help?
I have horrible headaches (sometime with nausea) and sometimes they turn into migraines. I have been diagnosed with sinus infections, ear infections….you name it. I have been on vicodin for a while and that doesn’t even seem to help. Any advice out there? I go to the dentist on Tues an am hoping that I can get some relief!

Answer by Technicolor Pomegranates They sell soft rubber or plastic tooth guards for people with tmj. They really help.
I had been sick for over a week finally went to the doctor and I have a bad sinus infection. I’ve been taking amoxicillian for three days and feeling better as far as the headache pressure goes but I am still so stuffed up. I can’t even get much mucus out. I keep trying to blow my nose. I’m worried about my baby since I am so sick. WIll all the blowing hurt her?
This has been going on for a couple of days now and I’ve tried everything. I’ve used my month supply of antibiotics, decongestants, antihistimines, everything to no avail….
Ugh, I’ve been having horrific asthma symptoms for over 2 weeks. I’m on an antibiotic for a sinus infection (which I get chronically and they always make my asthma worse), but it’s not working because I’m resistant to all antibiotics from taking them so often for sinusitis. Anyway, I NEVER wheeze, and when I breathe in, deep within my chest there’s like a high pitched dog-whistle sounding noise. Is that technically wheezing? For the last three days straight (despite doing my neb every 4-6 hours), I constantly feel like breathing has been extremely laborous. It gets worse when I lay down — would that indicate mucus in my lungs? Also, I’m going to the doctor tomorrow morning, and I know that I’ll be going on Prednisone (that’s what always happens when my symptoms can’t be conrolled by inhailed steroids and neb treatments alone). On Friday I’m also scheduled to get steroid shots in my back and neck (for an injury) with an anesthetic as well. Will that interact?
Thank you!
Oops, I forgot to add — can asthma attacks cause dizziness if there’s really a lack of oxygen? Because last night (and I know, I probably should have gone into the hospital, but I just did another nebulizer treatment which calmed down my symptoms), when I was wheezing, I got extremely dizzy and it went away after the wheezing and the asthma symptoms went away. I wasn’t sure if I was just tired or if lack of oxygen can cause dizziness? Thanks agian!!!
