: I have been suffering , like all of you, for ever, and for the last year it has been driving me crazy, and I of course have been driving my doctor crazy. The bone on one side of my jaw sticks out further than on the other side, like my head is on crooked. my jaw tightens in the cold and the dizzy spells, tingling, ear aches etc. Today I went to see a pretty darn good otlaryngologist, and he said that it is eagles syndrome. He seemed pretty sure. Have a lot of you heard that before too? or is it possibly correct? Do I dare to dream?
Had mine diagnosed and operated on in Gulfport, MS in 1995 by Dr Michael Schicsnider (? spelling).
Have been well since.
My symptoms were burning tongue and always felt as if I had a fishbone caught in my throat/ relieved with popcicles and chewing gum.
Be happy to share more with you.
