Common Questions and Answers about Fibromyalgia pain jaw
fibromyalgia
How are you? Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a neuropathic disorder of the trigeminal nerve that causes episodes of intense pain in the eyes, lips, nose, scalp, forehead, and jaw. The condition can bring about stabbing, electric shock-like pain from just a light wind or a finger's glance of the cheek.TN usually develops after the age of 40.
There is no typical cardiogenic chest pain, which is crushing precordial pain radiating to the jaw, arm and neck, relieved with sublingual nitrates. other possibilities for the muscle spasms can be chest injuries, previous chest surgery, possible culprit, any history of athletics, stress fractures , pulled chest muscles. Fibromyalgia is an important condition of chronic fatigue which causes severe muscle pain, with muscle spasms in chest.
The main thing to keep in mind (and you may have to stress this to your doctor) is that pain knows no age restrictions and fibromyalgia pain is no different. It IS very possible to have fibro even at your young age.
If, after your doctor appointment, you don't feel like you are getting satisfactory care or results, do not hesitate to seek a second opinion, even searching for a rheumatologist.
Fibromyalgia would be more muscular pain. Look up diagnosing Fibromyalgia- there is 18 specific tender points which are painful in ppl with it and other criteria needed to be diagnosed as Fibro. Does she have inflammation at the joints and increase pain with activity? This might suggest arthritis. I would suggest to keep seeing her doctor and following through with tests. This may take time bc they have to rule things out.
I was told it couild be TMJ and an orthadontist told me once, that my jaw was too small. Now I was just wondering what it could be. Not much takes away the pain tylonal only works for a couple hours and I've used joint cream which only works for a small amount of time. When it hurts, it creates large headaches that sometimes make me lightheaded. I was wondering if anyone would recomend anything to help it.

I have SLE Lupus so I have had symptoms I believe are related to that, arthritis, joint pain, fatigue to name a few. I originally went to see the ENT because I had swelling from my upper jaw down the side of my neck. I was pretty sure it was a tooth that had been capped the previously year since that's when it all started but wanted to rule out anything else. She said it was probably lupus related and suggested I get physical therapy.
In some fibromyalgia patients problems started with dental infection(s) that spread regionally and then eventually systemically. After their infection(s) became systemic, they were dx with fibromyalgia syndrome.
Intractable jaw infections are infections that often involve the bone and are particularly difficult to treat with systemic approaches, such as antibiotics. Unfortunately, successful treatment often requires that the infected bone be ablated.
Im sorry to hear about your tmj and your children that must be really hard on you.
yes i do have reflux and im pretty shore that's where the nausea comes from but i take nexium for that. Now that i think about i have had alote of injury's when i was little so it may be fibromyalgia. The dentist took x-rays with my jaw open and closed, i have done that twice now but he couldn't find anything. I told my doctor and he said that you cant c tmj with a xray.
I ended up with a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia when in fact the top 1/4 of my sternum was sitting horizontally because I had an undiagnosed dislocated Sterno-Manubrial Joint (angle of louis). There was an injury that seemed minor at the time.
My symptoms expanded from initial shoulder and back pain > neck pain > hip pain > throat pain > jaw pain *and it wasn't until more than 5 years later* that I got noticeable rib or chest pain.
It felt like the tooth was stabbing me in the jaw with a knife. The tooth and jaw both hurt, from the joint to the nose and went as high up as the cheek bone. The pain was so bad, I couldn't do anything but lie in bed. I tried pain medication, Oragel, and everything else people suggested. The only thing that helped, I discovered on Saturday, was ice (and not talking or eating).
The other day I developed mild scalp pain again. The pain went away again within a day and now I have joint pain in my right knee....right elbow....even the right side of my jaw however no muscle pain.
It seems to me pain in other parts of my body seems to ensue the scalp pain.
I have had blood tests ruling out any auto immune diseases, my blood tests always come back normal.
My dr expressed the only other thing it could be is Fibromyalgia....

I have been under suspision of having "MS" for a couple of years' but they can not find any solid prof!! But i was talking to a friend about my symptoms and it turned out that her sister suffered with many of the syptoms that I do. She has "ME". Could it be possible that my doctors have been barking up the wrong tree?
