Does anyone here have TMJ?

@Baybreeze It used to be referred to as “the suicide disease” because people were in so much pain they were killing themselves.

@MellyMel22 What a horrible condition...do they know the cause?

@Baybreeze For me it was from shingles on my jawline. I was weening off a med that I had never taken anything like before but used off label by dr and it shocked my system and the shingles caused the damage from being untreated b/c they had no idea what it was. I was in my 20’s and all they said was I was having stroke symptoms w/out even one risk factor for it 😒 My neuro diagnosed it when I saw him, but the nerve damage was already done.

@Baybreeze dental insurance is terrible, i pay a lot for coverage, it covers only a very small amount. you can search around for a boarded pain specialist, they may have some suggestions how to get some of the work covered.

@Baybreeze or a physician specializing in such
