The tooth is subsiding - still squishy, with some headaches, although the gum gap behind it still feels tender.

However, new problems!

I've been feeling a grinding sensation when I turn my head left or right - very soft, not audible to anyone else, like sand or small gravel being rubbed together, and only when it's quiet. I can also feel things grinding together - it's sensation, not pain.

I've been seeing a chiropractor and a physiotherapy masseuse, but it hasn't gotten better - in fact it feels/sounds like it's actually gotten worse.

And in then in the last week I've started having small headaches - literal aches in my head, not throbbing inside my skull or migraines or anything like that, just tightness around the upper and back of the skull.

I did some internet research on things it might be, and found "neck crepitus" which has all the symptoms bar actual 'pain'.

I'm thinking I should talk to my uncle (my doctor) about it, because it's not pain yet, but I really don't want it to get there, you know? I'm just struggling with all the previous negative results to the medical tests and so forth. After a while you start to doubt they can actually do anything...

It doesn't really help that I've been madly busy this weekend and had no chance to really relax.

Oh man, good luck with this. It doesn't rain but it pours.

Oh, wow. Like you really need another health issue. Sigh.
