about)?.......sorry to ramble on like a depressed hypochondriac.

First, popping in a TMJ is not a big deal by itself. When you see
Dr. Boyd he can demonstrate a popping joint louder than you can
generate on your own!

Not all treatment for any condition goes perfectly smooth eliminating
all symptoms without a set back or two. It is also possible that
any given condition cannot ever be made to completely disappear and
that the patient is the same as they were 10 years ago. A reduction
in the severity and frequency of symptoms may be the best you can
achieve. Magic wands are hard to come by.

I have only worked with one case of obvious joint changes. It took
over a year of NTI use to have things return to a fairly normal
condition. For the patient and myself this was a better solution
than trying to have a surgeon operate on the joint.

However, surgery *might* work for you. Of course, it might not, and the
trauma from the treatment could leave you in worse shape than you are
now.

My recommendation would be to give Dr. Boyd 3-6 months where you are
both dedicated to reaching a solution. Listen and follow directions.
See what happens over time.

yeah, regardless of what im feeling right now, im hoping to be back on
his team.
