I had that- the TMJ-
I had FMS, MCS, RLS,TMJ, IC, IBS and "a progressive multi-system neurological disease triggered by post lyme syndrome". Lyme disease...
My TMJ turned out to be BABESIOSIS, a tick borne disease. I have no pain today and no symptoms, am 100% symptom free.
I haven't had any acronyms for 7 years now- it is nice*)!!!
Babesiosis can cause fibro too so i would make sure you get tested for Babesiosis- there are different strains depending on where you live- West Coast is WA1, East Coast is Microti & MO1 & midwest is MO1 & Microti...
Anyway, you can do a challenge with Dr Zhang Artemisia for Babesiosis- if you have a reaction within 5 days you haev it, if you don't you don't- the herxheimer reastion is when it seems like you are allergic to all abx and means you have a bacterial infection- not to be confused with an ellergic reaction but often people think that is what is happening- your symptoms get worse on abx-
BABESIOSIS is not treated with antibiotics but with anti-malarials-
Anyway, that's my experience, my TMJ was Babs, my fibro was Lyme and I am all better- hope you find a path to wellness, too-
Best wishes,
Sarah
