How do you know that Invisalign caused these "side effects"? Have you been to an allergy specialist? If you had a letter from a doctor stating that Invisalign definitely caused your medical problems, you might have a case for a refund.
I personally wouldn't get Invisalign unless the appearance of your teeth bothers you. A night guard will prevent the teeth grinding. I agree with getting a consultation from an orthodontist who can advise you of all your options.
I haven't really had any pain except for maybe the first 5 minutes putting in or taking out new aligners. No discoloration on my teeth; they have stayed pretty white just brushing all the time with whitening toothpaste. I sip water all day to keep from having a dry mouth. I do find the aligners to be annoying, but certainly they aren't as bad as my first go-round with metal braces, rubber bands, headgear, etc.
I am a 56 year old Invisalign patient, and I have to tell you that wearing the aligners is a big commitment. You may find that bonding or veneers can fix your cosmetic concerns within a much shorter time frame. If you post pictures it might be helpful for the doctors who answer these questions.
