Guest guest Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Hey all- Wow, all the posting lately is exciting. It is great to be part of such a loyal and truly caring bunch of people. The support on here is outstanding!!!! I for one, am so thankful to have sites like this to get support, comfort, relieve anxiety, etc. It is such a comforting thing especially when you have a concern or are a new person who simply needs some support and reassurance. It is such a blessing to be able to get on here, voice a concern or question and have some replies within a very short time. Anyway, just wanted to throw that out there. Okay, so I know we have had long discussions about bone and teeth health in the past. I know I have chronic, something debilitating pain in my lower back and hips from DJD and osteoporosis. I know that I am young but have had it diagnosed 2-3 years ago. My trouble lately is that I have had popping in my right jaw bone for the last 6 months or so and it seems like its getting worse. To the point that last night I was trying to eat an orange and it popped so hard and loud and painful, that I didn't think I would be able to eat it. Chewing gum also, causes nothing but popping. Has anyone had this in the past and if so, what did you do. I need my jaw bones for a lot more years so I thought I'd better get this straightened out while I am young and healthy. I also notice that my teeth which have always been perfect, are now appearing to be getting smaller. I can almost see through between teeth now? I don't know if they are moving or simply really getting smaller? This is freaking me out....Will I be in dentures by 40? I guess I need to really be eating Tums like candy. I guess that is my problem of the month. Thanks in advance for the help. Zavie- What the heck number am I again in your Zero club? I forgot, I know imagine that!!!!
