Re: Jaw Tightness??

I, too, have been having something similar, but it's not painful, but more of a pressure in my lower teeth and jaw. I happens when I am crashing/tired/overloaded, and I know that it happens when I am sleeping and I am clenching and grinding, which makes me very unhappy(my poor teeth!)

I recently got a book about silicone poisoning from breast implants, and one of the symptoms mentioned in there is problems with TMJ.

Reading this book over the last week has made me understand what I really believe has been happening to my body(and maybe others too). It says that the body becomes overloaded with dealing with the toxic silicone, and that just doing everyday things/activities can be too much of a burden on the body, which is exactly how I feel. I think that is why I have these crashes and why I have been having a problem with the low cortisol/blood Sugar thing. My body just can't handle too much activity, and when I take it really easy, I notice a huge difference. I can actually go more than a few hours without having that low bloodsugar feeling and needing to eat.

Mirena contains the same silicone that some breast implants do, and the shell is also made of the same material. Scary !

Another symptom that I read about is the throat closing feeling, which some ladies have experienced. That was the first time I had read about that symptom being associated with silicone poisoning.
