As for pain relief...try reflexology. You can print off a "map" of the foot. Use no- or lightly-scented lotion.

Also find some info. about accupressure. The emotional stress of everything going on can cause a lot of physcial stress around the jaw muscles and around the forehead and eyes. I used a lotion made for faces (don't need acne on top of everything else) for my daughter.

These two things helped more than any of the pain meds. There were days I did both literally for HOURS. Once you start relieving the muscle strain in the jaw especially it really hurts when it comes back. It takes a few days/weeks to get it to stay gone.
