Health - 13 November 2006

I went to the E.R. on Friday, with horrible pain in my jaw. The doctor felt my jaw (did nothing else), ordered some x-rays, didn't see anything, and told me that I had a sprain, to follow up with my regular doctor, and let me go.

The pain was really bad, so I went to another doctor in the same hospital. After examining me, he told me that I had TMJ syndrome. He gave me some muscle relaxers, and told me that I needed to see a dentist.

My question is, since I am paying all of this out of my pocket, is there something I can do about paying for the first visit, since it wasn't even the right diagnosis? Does it mean that I would have to go to court?

Ok I have asked this question before although not many came with thorough an informative answers that would really help me, and I'm really trying to seek help with this.

I always like to be alone, without people around me, just sittting in front of the computer. Everytime my parents and my brother go out, I don't like going with them at all, in fact I barely go with them. Something else I have a problem with is that I don't really talk to people outside of the family, I'm awlays pretty shy and just look at the ground so that no one can see my face, with a cap on top to cover myself. In school everyone calls me a ghost because they don't even know I'm there and I don't talk to them either, I don't want to either, because all they talk about is soccer and bad stuff, and I'm not interested. Teachers always look at me and sorta see the face of mine which says: Help Me!

I lead quite an active life. I work full time and I go to the gym most nights after work. If I don't go to the gym I'm usually out with friends or something like that. I'm in bed by ten at the latest though and I always feel so tired.

I would like facts and studies if you can.
Also, differences between direct, indirect, and no light would all be nice.

Could anyone help? i had a permanent brace for about 2 years and wore a retainer afterwards for some time. that was 2 years ago. I am not sure but I think there is a slight movement in my front teeth and would like to know if by putting my retainer that I had after my brace back on every night would harm my teeth and make them worst or help them get back into perfect shape.

Thanks

I know some people are going to say "Get Right with God"... I am very spiritual... so I'm ok there.
Some will say "Get on medication". I'm on an antidepressant.
Some will say "God helps those who help themselves"... I need a job first, I've put out 200+ resumes and applications since June and no job, not even at Walmart! (I have two college degrees too) so if I had a job, I could help myself a lot easier.


I'm just wondering how I can get out of this funk I seem to be in. All weekend I felt like I was dying on the inside. I can't explain it. Felt like this for years since I've been married (10 years) but it's getting worse and worse.

I know, tomorrow is another day... but I still feel like I'm in some bad dream and can't wake up. I'm trying to do the "P.M.A" (positive mental attitude) too...

*sigh*
