Yes, or at least 99% percent of them. In fact, oddly enough, I went to my dentist complaining of tooth sensitivity/nerve pain and he could not find anything wrong. I told him I had health anxiety and asked if that could possibly have something to do with it? He said, "Absolutely!" Then he proceeded to tell me that he was going to cure most of my anxiety right there - nothing's wrong. You know what? 90% of it went away immediately. :shrug:

I noticed a lot of people don't know what TMJ actually is - here is a quick explaination.
Temporomandibular joint disfunction - Symptoms of TMJ include: pain in the jaw, sometimes spreading to the ear, stiffness and swelling in the jaw, and even headaches. The muscles of the jaw may also become stiff and tender, especially in the morning and opening the mouth may be difficult. Factors that cause TMJ disease include grinding the teeth during sleep and clenching teeth.

Comments:
writing and speaking to peoplealso in chat room helps. I hate doctors, they are not interested in the cause, they just want to suppress the symptoms!
Hi again, has any of you tried any of the natural remedies listed on this site? i.e. bach flowers, vit b complex, omega 3, homeopathy, aminoacids, minerals, massage etc, etc ................. please let me know. I always refused to take omeprazole .... and I'm also allergic to most conventional meds, as well as most types of foods. Has any of you tried a particular diet?
thanks.

Comments:
My symptoms tend to last for a week or two at a time, then I get a new set of symptoms, generally at the moment they're getting less and less dehabilitating - from chronic fatigue to dizzy spells today. I tend to ignore it and get on with my life, but with college work it can just really get me down. Tend to feel better after I've slept a lot - symptoms also tend to dissapear when I don't think about it, which isn't as often as I'd like!

Still reallying trying to get used to it, my body doesn't seem to want to recover at te moment, as I get over one symptom and then the following week I have another.
Judging from some of the questions, I seem to get away with it quite lightly, of course to me it doesn't feel that way.
