I have decided that this disease is like the old joke where the man says that his head hurts and the other man stomps on his foot to make him forget about his head ache.

I have been dealing with pain issues in my right neck and shoulder with shooting pain into my elbow that is waking me at night. I have scheduled therapy to get this fixed that starts next week. After the trip to the dentist yesterday, having my mouth stretched wide open while he drilled, and drilled, and drilled trying to remove that crown today my neck and jaw are so sore that my shoulder and arm don't hurt so bad. Since my pectoral muscle is now in my mouth I had muscle twitching last night in my upper chest that was interesting also. And speech is not recommended today - it hurts and I am not very clear since I am all swollen again. I hope that I did not go to the dentist too soon after surgery, but my ENT did say last appointment that she wanted me to get some teeth.
