jaw pain real bad today-anxiety ?

[hyg]

Hey,
must be really clenching my jaw with anxiety now as pain all up one side of my face now. It started in front of my ear-so off I goes to GP-I did have slight ear inflammation but have used ear drops for that. I thought cit was supposed to decrease anxiety !!! Went back to bed today-could nt cope. Anyone got any tips ?? Will be much appreciated :weep:

Thanks Cathy.
yes I do remember reading your thread about it last week-I think you are ahead of me in weeks with the cit so Im catching you up on the SEs ! I have already got a bite block so Ill dig it out and start wearing it ( I had it made cos I got migraine ) It seems once the jaw is tense its hard to relax. In my more hypochondriac moments I have considered the pain to means lots more-but we know its not -dont we !! lol

Oh yeah,
Im holding a warm wheat pad against my face-that seems to help a bit x
