Made apponintment for TMJ

Insurance doesn't cover it. Heard a crack in my jaw while eating, now its popping. Decided its not going to get better, so contacted a local dentist who helps with this.

$1000.00. Sometimes I feel I can't take one more thing. Palliative care not helping. Hoping for some relief. Depressed

I know some people are hard against them. I'm open minded about them. I've used them through out my life, but I'm not a regular. My husband had a knee go south on him. He used a cane for a month. The Ortho doc said, "Oh my, bone on bone, need a knee replacement". He went to the chiropractor, he fixed it with one visit and he has never had trouble again.
