I GOT TMJ FROM A JOB INJURY BACK IN 2000. IT HAS LEFT ME WITH TENDONITIS ON LEFT SHOULDER AND 3 DICS IN MY NECK OF THE CSPINE. I AM ON WOKERS COMP AND HAVE A TMJ DOCTOR BUT, NO HAPPY WITH TREAMENT. I CLENCH MY TEETH AND I AM USPET BECAUSE I USE TO BE VERY ACTIVE AND NOW I CANNOT WORKOUT OR MY TMJ IS TRIGGERED. MY LEFT EAR HURTS AND I HAVE SPASMS ON MY FACE AND NECK. ALSO I HAVE MIGRANES. I WEAR A THIN SPLINT ON BOTTOM OF MY TEETH AND IT DOES HELP A LITTLE. BUT I WAS WONDERING IF I SHOULD GET ACCUPUNCTURE OR BETTER PHYSICAL THERAPY. IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE SAN FERNADO VALLEY, CALIFORNIA. I FEEL ALONE IN THIS MISERY.
