I get pain on the top of my head and sometimes the back of my head and neck after having a half hour conversation. I wake up during the night with my nose tingling, jaw hurts, ears sometimes hurt. I feel like crap all over...from the middle of my back to top of head. I'm also off balance all the time...but seems worse after activity (even talking ...say on the phone...I will feel off balance)

I know for a fact that the anxiety (which comes on AFTER I start feeling awful) is only exaggerating the symptoms.

Oh..and the hit on the head was actually the back of head -- hit a foam wall at a waterpark. I know it was a whiplash situation. I am now getting physical therapy and chiro work done. Ultrasound to neck, traction, etc.

I feel like crap after being in a store for 15 mins (food shopping etc). I just can't stand it anymore. Its been 13 months!

I don't know what is coming from the jaw, neck, or brain. I don't know what's too much for me and what is coming from me be afraid and anxious of feeling like crap.

Dentist did a huge workup on me. He said that I have no space where the disc should be on one side of my jaw and half mm on the other side (he said there shuld be close to 5 mm of space) He showed me the xrays -- didn't look so good. I was fitted for an orthotic and should be here next week. He also said I show signs of grinding and or clenching.
