Does anyone have tips on how to deal with jaw pain? This new symptom showed up a few months ago but doesn’t respond to cbd or my normal pain medication like my other symptoms. Ice helps (so does eating cold ice cream so I can’t complain) but would love to hear more functional ways to address the pain that don’t involved so many calories lol

In the last few months I have had a variety of issues. The doctors are saying it's IBS (IBS-A), which I can accept. But, I'm tired of hurting. The low fodmap diet did squat, and though I feel like the pamelor I was perscribed has to be doing something since I'm not wallowing in severe pain, I am still in pain. Does the IBS pain ever go away? Dicyclomine didn't do anything, and I really try to limit my use of pain meds. I've never had pain with bowel mvts. so I find it hard to say my pain is IBS

One of my newer Fibromyalgia symptons is pain in the muscles around my jaw and face which makes eating and talking a difficult task. My rheumatologist prescribed steroids when this first popped up to help with the swelling but the only thing that really helps is icing while wearing a face wrap. Anyone have any advice? My pain medication doesn’t work nor does over the counter Aleve or CBD/THC

I was put in a psych ward earlier this year after a very traumatic surgery with no pain medication. In that time I was gas lit by everyone around me, they all told doctors and police I said things I never did to get me put in the psych ward. With that in mind is being diagnosed with bipolar a legit diagnosis if no one listened to what I was saying at the psych ward because of what others said?
