Hi Karen hope things are going good for you that was so sweet to check up on me (thanks)
as for me I am just waiting for my insurance to approve my surgery trying my hardest to get into the holiday spirit

I'm off my steroids now and it really seems without them things go down hill quickly when on them they seem to greatly reduce my pain DR says it helps the inflammation which in turn helps the fluid drain but they are a temporary fix (cant stay on them forever) I got a question for you
Do you ever wonder if there is something more going on than TMJ ? Do you ever get scared when the pain hits that maybe you have a brain tumor or something?
I felt silly yesterday but my head hurt so bad that i questioned if it is all TMJ i know it most likely is But dang sometimes its so bad it scares me
well enough complaining it never helps LOL
Hope you have a WONDERFUL holiday
Thanks again for caring
Your Friend
