Or maybe he has a dental problem affecting his sinuses. Could be, though.

He was just at the dentist a month or so ago and there weren't any problems. It seems to clear right up after he takes a hot shower and it came in with this nasty rain/cold front. So I assume he's at the mercy of the barometer and the muccous membranes in his skull.

Has anyone else here had sinus problems that seem to affect the teeth?

Yes. I actually went to the dentist one time, because I thought I had a tooth problem. He said that the root of a tooth actually touched the sinus cavity, which was not a problem physically but which explained why I felt the pain in my teeth.

This is EXACTLY what Christopher first said it was on Friday.

And that's how I know -- I have an alien in MY skull!

What is even happening?

Cashmere, I've definitely had sinus problems that hurt my teeth. You know what helped a little bit (beside the shower, etc)? Flossing. Weird. On the other hand, my roommate had recurring sinus infections and it turned out she needed a root canal.

Minor blockage, yeah. His last stress test was only a few months ago so there was only minor blockage. It's just genetic with him, mostly. Except for him needing more cardio exercise--he's doing everything else pretty well. It was an early warning, to be sure and one that he's taken to heart (figuratively and literally). They're putting him on a medication that is supposed to increase his good cholesterol--which appears to be his main problem.

I'm so glad this was one of those helpful, painful episodes, given his genetics.

Cindy! I just watched the Diwali episode. "All right, this isn't Lord of the Rings. " HA HA HA HA HA.

Sunil, wasn't it great? Mindy wrote that episode. And see, I told you it was with love. Those were actually her parents who played her parents. I thought of you, the entire time.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Sunil, wasn't it great?

It was my culture! ON THE TEEVEE! I also fucking loved that Kelly didn't actually know the origins of Diwali, because...that's so true. One of my friends thought the episode was lame and boring, and I could kind of see why she might have thought that since it wasn't laugh-out-loud funny most of the time, but I didn't care because of the whole culture thing.

Michael tried to eat a samosa with a FORK. And he thought it was a S'MORE.

(And she looked so beautiful all done up in her sari, etc., better than she looks, Westernized).

Yeah, I agree.

Cashmere, that is horrible. I've lived with sinus infections all my life. Do you want tips for pain control, to get him through until he sees the doctor? Cause there is stuff that helps, but maybe your DH already has been through the standard checklist.

He's been taking various sinus meds. That with steam seems to help in the short term.
