Wouldn't hurt until you see Jim and he might make a daytime
appliance.

its just so frustrating. it doesnt seem like my head and neck willl
ever be out of spasm.

btw, im seeing Dr.Boyd this week and was wondering if there was
anything specific i may want
to be sure to ask him. Thanks

What's on your list at this point? Advice: make a list of your
concerns and take it with you to the appointment.

Thanks Webby, and thanks to everybody else on this board for being so
helpful. I saw
Dr. Boyd today and I and basically im going to use the lower NTI ive
got already during the day
and as much as possible for the next month and then go back for a
recheck. Thank God for
that guy, such a cool doctor.

You're very welcome! I put up one more post in response to an older
post of yours. Hopefully, you'll see it and give us your thoughts.

It sounds as though you and Dr. Boyd have a good plan! Best of luck to
you and hopefully you'll keep us posted as to your progress.

Hey, sorry im back with another question that i didnt get to ask
Dr.Boyd.

before i had injured my jaw joint with an unnatural sideways opening,
i was already dealing with headaches,
that i thought were sinus related for a number of years ,that had
become just about daily and constant-i was told i had transfomed
migraine.
After i had the trauma to my jaw, everything went into complete
overdrive with spasms and headache and neck pain off the chart,and
unable to wear the NTI at first with so much jaw pain.Now, since ive
got these two overlapping conditions(or so i think) how would my
treatment with the NTI splint be different from somebody with just
routine jaw pain? Maybe this is a neurologist type question, i dont
know. I guess ive just had so many different opinions from
neurologists, in fact i had one tell me that people claiming to have
tmj pain were a pitfall for migraine diagnosis. But, i know for a fact
that i have real jaw pain popping, spasms, headaches,neck pain,etc.,
as well as a prior history of headaches before the jaw pain. OK, the
questions is more simply, how would the diagnostic function of the
NTI be applied to my case?.........sorry i know its a bunch of
rambling.
these two problems overlapping it seems(or so i think)
.
