Recently I've had a flare up of TMJ symptoms.
Not only am I experiencing jaw pain but also pressure/pain in back of head.
One thing that seems quite strange is the pressure and pain diminish when I'm standing.
Currently I have a chiropractor working on this for me. Helps some but not a lot. In two weeks I see a PT who specializes in TMJ.

My worst symptom is neck pain while sitting. My neckmuscles get really tight, and I get a burning sensation at the bottom of my skull.
I can't sit for more thena 15 minutes 2 timesw a day.
They did an MRI, and found some degeneration of the spine, which is "strange", since I don't have any autoimmune disorder and never had any kind of accident, or even repetitive activities that could cause it.
My LLMD says its the lyme. I know several others have posted here about spinal deterioration. I mean, the joints of the spine are great places for lyme to set up residence....
neck pain and popping are common with lyme

Make certain that dental infections are not a problem. Wisdom tooth sites (with or without teeth). Root canals do more damage than I can list here. Heavy Metal toxicity is a major hurdle when combined with Lyme and other infections.
I lived with what Tickalert desdribes for a l o o n g time until I took care of the dental problems and years of heavy metal detoxification caused by the different metal alloys in fillings and crowns. It was not a problem until I got bit by a tick. Then all hell broke loose.
I realize this is a miserable thing for anyone to hear, when the occiput feels like if wearing 3 tight bathingcaps. But I avoided the problems for years and I am sorry I did.
After eliminating these problem sources, I started to heal Lyme and infections. Not before. I am fine today.
I am doing the Allergie Immun Therapy now for a year, and today I tested for the different toxins I am releasing due to that "drops of informed water" therapy. the very toxins that still were hiding out somewhere -- Thioethers/mercaptans (dental toxins = dead teeth) and a toxic mixture of metals that had penetrated all my body. I can feel the tender spots all over my gums/jawbone for a few days. It will probably disappear as fast as it came on. And good riddance.
Very long, but important to understand the connection of pain, structure, teeth, etc. I know Dr. Jelstrup personally for many years and just ran into this very descriptive interview. One body! and all has to be addressed.
Take care.

GiGi I'm working with an ART Dr. who does the same work Dr. K does...he has gone to many of his classes/seminars.
I do have lots of root canaled teeth. I agree they're a huge problem. If I take them out I'll be left with very few teeth.
I definitely want to check into the Allergie Immune therapy. Looks like many here have had very positive results.
