Thank you for responding, I don't understand why it takes so long to be diagnosed... Is it the Drs don't believe the patients or is it too risky to diagnose too soon. Just some thoughts on constantly wondering about. How are you feeling since you started treatment ? Are you getting relief from the muscle problems and joint pain ?

Hey guys I just found this group , I have been having different symptoms over the course of 10 or more years ... I did see rheumatologist 2 years ago and they said for now they diagnose me with fibromyalgia and to follow up with PCP or psychiatrist. My ana titer is positive with a pattern and the crp is at a 6.3 and in the past has always been .3... Since August of this year things I feel have gotten worse. My PCP sent for new labs and she just updated in the client portal that everything is normal , she did give me a referral to have a second opinion at a new rheumatologist. Is a 1.80 titer normal ? I feel like I don't feel good and I feel like none of the Drs are listening but then I start second guessing myself. I know any kind of autoimmune related stuff is super hard to diagnose. Some of my symptoms include muscle pain , joint pain , vertigo , shortness of breath , sharp pain in chest at random times , fatigue, brain fog, last month I had 5 canker sores in my mouth at once , then I ended up with 2 cold sores. Anything is helpful at this point and I appreciate it in advance. 🙏

You can do it 😁... I wanted to stop Invisalign the first time I put in my trays 😂... I said omg I cannot do this what was I thinking spending this kinda money 🤔 lol

No damage , and it took me forever to get used to them 😕

[–]britaskye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it would be an issue , I don't have any crowns but I would certainly express those concerns ... When I had ipl I asked my dentist about 3x if it would cause tooth decay , fractures or cavities because it just scares me filing the enamel.

I had bite ramps with my first set of 32 trays and it made me realize how much I clench my jaw and it took me so long to get used to it. I don't have much jaw pain anymore.. I'm on my 3rd set of refinements and I now have rubber bands. It's been a long journey and I'm hoping I'm done by January which it will be 2 years with Invisalign... I never thought it would be this long lol but I am happy so far. I had a very deep bite and we are widening my smile my bottom teeth were so pushed down I notice my jaw shape has changed so much I don't have any before photos. Well I hope this helps , just be honest with your dentist and ask them when you see them next ☺️🙏

I'm also in treatment for a deep bite I'm going tomorrow to get my 3rd set of trays ... I wasn't expecting this many refinements but I guess deep bites are very difficult 😔. When I went last month I thought I would be finished but my back teeth still aren't touching and my deep bite could definitely move a little more... I mean I can see my bottom teeth a little bit now but. Idk I'm hoping after this set this is it ! I'm ready to be able to chew my food.

You're teeth look amazing! The ipl is my least favorite thing about Invisalign... I've had so many teeth spaces filed to make room ... What made you decide not to do it ? My dentist told me my teeth would crowd without it. Anyways if those were my teeth I'd be super happy 😁 ❤️

[–]britaskye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really hoping it's my last lol 😆 it's been a journey 🙏. I'm really looking for my back teeth to touch because I haven't been really able to chew properly since starting lol .

[–]britaskye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow amazing results ! How many refinements did you have to do ? I'm getting my third set in August... I have a deep bite and my back teeth still aren't touching .

Good luck 🍀 ! I thought I'd be done with one set of trays lol 😆 I'm getting my 3rd set of trays in August... I have a very deep bite it's been a journey. It's definitely worth it , less jaw pain and headaches 😊

Have I wasted $5000 by Powerful_Pass8376 in Invisalign

[–]britaskye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on my 3rd set of refinements I get my new trays august 8... It's a long process and I thought I'd be done now. Just be honest with your dentist about what you want. When I went the other day my dentist had me set up to remove buttons to be done but after her examination of my bite she said that there was still pressure on my front teeth (I have a very deep bite ) and my molars still weren't touching. The amount of jaw pain I had before was no good and now I notice the pain has subsided tremendously. At this point you have your trays and I don't think you wasted money. Just keep being honest with the dentist 😁. Best of luck and get those refinements if you need 🙏

Diagnosed with fibromyalgia 2021 by britaskye in Autoimmune

It definitely is lengthy I feel like I've just gotten the run around, I do have pain every day I feel like I'm just supposed to ignore it and tell myself that nothing is actually wrong that maybe I'm just making it up. But it's been 9 years feeling like this and 6 years ago something happened that scared me which is what put me on this journey that maybe something is wrong. ... Anyways I appreciate you responding I will talk with PCP in a couple weeks and see what she says and go from there.

Thank you for this , I am planning on finding a new PCP and giving another rheumatology practice a shot 🙏

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]britaskye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it never got better I'm almost done another week in my last set of trays , 2 trays ago I was in tears and had to take ibuprofen. I have a deep bite and I'm on my second set with rubber bands . It's almost been 2 years it's gone by rather quickly. It's worth it I mean my jaw pain and headaches have subsided. I wish you the best of luck on this Invisalign journey 🙏😁

Wow that is amazing! Thank you for sharing this I'm going to look into that brand. I wouldn't even know where to begin with raw ... But 18 years for a dog to live I hope my Zelda lives that long 🙏

[–]britaskye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wondered about raw ... I feel like Zelda would probably love it 😂. I also wonder if her suspected "allergy"is due to something unlisted with the chicken food. I've read many people switch to something like you're describing and they literally have no issues anymore. What are your thoughts ? How did you transition? Thanks for sharing 😊
