i also have a similar thing sometimes in the car where i am fine until i get to the traffic lights and then i feel a bit dizzy but when i start driving again i am fine...
wondering whether there are more psychological things at play sometimes coupled with my posture issues...? |
HI---The dizziness for me was one of the last horrible symptoms I got over the past year. At times, I literally will be walking through a doorway with a basket of laundry or something, and bang into the door jam, losing my balance. OR just have basic dizziness when I'm doing nothing at all. Your inner ear is probably being affected due to the tmjd. As for my case, I also have had increased anxiety and panick at times, and along with all the other symptoms, this can make life very complicated and hard to deal with. And yes, postural issues can also make your muscles in turn work overtime in compensation for your structure being thrown off. Do you have a forward head posture at all from tmjd.? IF you are having all these nasty symptoms, please get to a competent tmj specialist and get evaluated. Take care, J.
