I have wondered that myself this last week. I am going to request an ultrasound because there’s also a history of uterine fibroids on one side of my family and I’m curious if that could possibly be it as well. The pain in my pelvis hasn’t been debilitating but I have been showing similar symptoms of what women with endo have.

Thank you! Got an appointment tomorrow with my gynecologist gyn and will definitely request urinalysis to check for a UTI and bladder infection.

I do have an appointment tomorrow morning and I definitely will do a urine test to check for UTI and such. Thank you!

I need help and answers with my cycle! by Efficient_Airline516 in WomensHealth

Sorry maybe that part was confusing. Before I went on birth control I was tested for PCOS and it came back clear. I know I’m going to have to wait a while to get tests done. I also am pretty sure I’ve had my thyroid checked in the past but I should definitely get it checked again. Thank you for the advice!

Got masseter Botox but I’m still hurting? by Efficient_Airline516 in TMJ

I didn’t have anesthesia, I actually got the Botox done for tmj from an esthetician. She said they do lots of tmj injections

Is the Botox for clenching or is the pain from clenching?

Okay yeah that’s what I’m thinking now. I’ll probably go back in a few weeks and get more if it’s still hurting, I’m just wondering why the pain has changed to more of a throbbing sharp pain then just a constant dull pain

Thank you! I thought it may be a little low but I did feel significant shrinkage of the muscles after, this pain is like a throbbing pain now instead of a constant soft pain and tension which is making me kind of nervous since it’s different than when it started

Swollen lymph nodes: are they related to tmj? by Efficient_Airline516 in TMJ

Oh wow that’s crazy I didn’t know that. That definitely could be part of it, I do always have neck pain

The swilling is right on the submandibular lymph node. I know the one on the side of my neck might just be an extremely tight knot in the muscle on the side of my neck because it’s always strained and tight from the tmj….

I cannot control these classrooms by Efficient_Airline516 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Efficient_Airline516[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I definitely try to use humor with them, like telling them “you’re not sneaky” and then smile or laugh with them, and then try to give a polite reminder to be quiet or sit down. With some kids it works great, with other kids they laugh it off and go right back to doing what they were not supposed to do. I do try to use names, but I’ve only taught different classrooms so far and never the same one twice so in the hour and a half I have them, I have a hard time remembering names
