non-allergic Rhinitis
September 6th, 2010
Ever heard of this. Me neither. It has symptoms similiar to allergies but affects those without allergies. Runny nose; sneezing; nasal dripping; sinus headaches. These are all of the symptoms I am having without being allergic to anything. Who knew? I found it in an article in USA Today. There are some prescription medicines that seem to be effective. Will talk to my doctor about it next week when I see him. All along I thought it was the 16 screws and 4 plates in my upper jaw causing this.
We shall see. More later.

June 6th, 2010
When I go to my 4 month check up my dentist now has a TV hanging over my chair. Ii like it sort of as it distracts from the pain, on the otherhand I feel locked into the hygenist’s preferences of programs. So far, my appt. has not been during soaps. I think I might say something about that. I have such trouble opening my mouth that I , in no way, want to alienate the hygienist.
