Could this be all be related to my jaw? I don't really believe it can be!?

Hello, back in November I began complaining of pain behind the eyes, teeth hurting especially upper teeth, pressure on head (dizziness and sometimes off balance). I went to the doctor and was told I have a sinus infection. Went on antibotics symptoms didnt go away. Since than I've noticed my jaw is cracking and popping. My ears are popping and feel clogged (get pain behind the ears as well). Sometimes pain at the back of my end, were it hurts to touch my scalp. Just Random pains in my head sometimes, they usually dont last long but are worriesome. Pain in my temples and sometimes pressure in my temples. Sometimes pain in the jaw area. I've had complete blood work done. I've had a sinus xray, I just found out I had acid reflux, I've gone to the eye doctor (he looked behind the eyes nothing). My dentist recently gave me a bite plate b/c he thinks I am clenching my teeth and grinding ( I work at a daycare) and all of these health issues have been stressing me out. help

Ask your Dr to check for a 'growth' on your spinal cord
Talk to your doctor about looking into TMJ do a search on it...Sounds to me like thats what you have. I have it too...

And by the way--- for your acid reflux-- try to stay away from prescriptions...They really do no good..Instead try apple cidar vinegar -- seriously-- it HELPS!!
go see another doc.
after some time your bite guard should help you. you might also think about something to make you relax at night and or an antidepressant
Sounds like TMJ. There are so many nerves in the face sometimes pain comes from elsewhere than its percieved. It could also be an infected tooth needing a root canal. I had that happen once, my whole face would hurt, starting at the jaw. I needed a root canal. After the root canal, no jaw pain what so ever. Funny thing was the tooth in question wasn't where I felt the pain. Pain was all on one side of my face all the way to my neck.
Sounds like TMJ to me, and the bite plate will help that. Hey, I just discovered the tooth that didn't hurt me was causing my ear to not drain and make me lose some hearing...
Has your Dr checked for TMJ? This is jaw related and usually the bite plate your dentist gave you helps.There really is no cure for TMJ except for surgery to realign the jaw.And it isn't always effective.ask your Dr about TMJ and see if the bite plate brings any relief.
This does sound like TMJ. I have it and have seen several specialist for this problem. The bite plate helps, but may not completely fix the problem. See your dentist and he should refer you to a specialist
