Hi, all --

Apologies if this has already been discussed, but I wanted to share this article that I found interesting: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3207233/.

Here is what I wonder:

- Is this in any way related to the TMJ treatment that has allegedly helped some folks with PD? It seems that both are structural approaches that relate to the fact that something in the brain is under too much pressure or is too crowded.

- They say that 73% of the folks with PD had a compression. What I wonder is whether these folks ALSO had that nerve pain.

My mom has PD but not neuralgia, so just wondering whether it's worth investigating this avenue. Disappointing to see that the person suffered a relapse after 18 months, though.

Any comments would be most welcome!

Thanks and best wishes.

The TMJ treatment is one of the many things I tried that didn't work, but I met some other patients in the office that claimed considerable relief.
