Finding a doctor to deal with my TMJ has been a nightmare. My primary care thinks an oral surgeon to give me some kind of shot is the right doctor. But the only oral surgeon my insurance covers is one who literally only does surgery. They said what I need is several months of physical therapy. They also recommended a doctor to me that turns out to be a dentist. I don't have dental insurance. My dentist gave me a nightguard and nothing else.

My doctor has agreed to refer me to physical therapy. But that is going to take forever to give me relief.

Some googling says sometimes ENTs treat TMJ, so I'm now going to call some ENTs my insurance covers on Monday to see if they can treat me.

But the whole thing is so frustrating, and I'm still in so much pain all the time. And my doctor won't give me any other meds. He gave me 10 days of muscle relaxants, but those finished a couple weeks ago.

I can't sleep from the pain. I was awake until 6am this morning and only managed about 3 hours of sleep.
