Good Morning Everyone,
I am new here and trying to find some kind of relief for this stuff. Right now I am seeing my regular MD. I don't know what is worse the jaw pain or the headaches. I've never been one to have headaches and they have just about made it impossible for me to have any kind of life. My journey has just started with this stuff and already I am finding that doctors are just as confused about this as I am. What's a person to do?

I had a CT scan done last week and saw a orthodontist who told me that a splint would not help since its not my bite that is the problem. At least he was honest

I joined this forum in hoping to connect with others who have been dealing with this much longer than I have, and maybe I can get some insight to where or what I can do to get some relief.

Thanks for listening.
Donna
