Not sure I would agree with you re my condition being worse than yours, I think life circumstances through different things at us both, and our condition is unique in how it presents itself , I choose to buy and use a wheelchair because I have had enough of the chronic pain, fatigue and the impact on my body of falling.... I admire you greatly that you are still determined to keep uprightly mobile for as long as you can :A:A:A
Thank you for sharing you are struggling, I hope it brings comfort that others can empathise, feel we are also not alone and say you are a star, keep plodding and I hope you have a warm duvet, a good book and cake which is a medicinal prescription for us both at the mo
As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or

Oh beanielou I feel for you. I hate the dentists.
On the other hand once it is done the crown will protect your tooth and you will keep it longer
If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

Oh beanie! What about muscle relaxants? Surely they can do something, if you need a crown, then you *do*! I know that even ordinary work on my teeth, other than a hygienist appointment, gives me muscle ache for 3 days afterwards, its so unnatural to hold your mouth in these positions

I so feel for you, I had a cervical smear yesterday, and my dear body decided to spasm in the middle of it :eek::eek:. Fortunately I have an understanding GP.
I also have had problems with dentists, not helpful when you spasm and bite down on your dentist:o:o
The biggest thing that I have found helped, my dentist ( yes private - no other round here ) has this DVD glasses which I wear and watch a movie usually Nottinghill - I find I am so completely absorbed in the film that my body does relax enough for him to clamp my mouth open with a device, so I don't have to do it myself.
Is it worth researching dentists?

So my best boy's dissatation is in.
Technically his last task as an undergraduate.
He has a conference next month and that is him
So proud of him as it has not been an easy road.
