100th Blog Post!

I got to see my neurologist today. She had just received the packet from Mayo as I was waiting for our appointment so we were able to go over everything that happened. Including all the frustrations - there is really something to be said for having an established patient/doc relationship. Even though it has only been 20 months or so since I've been seeing her we have established trust and I feel comfortable talking openly with her. She has a good amount of common sense, which helps that along greatly.

Anyway, she said she would try to find another TMJ specialist at Hopkins, which is really close by, for me to see. Shortly after returning home I received a call from her office, I have an appointment at the end of October - Yeah! She didn't know a PT in the area to send me to, but I managed to find someone via the National PT Association. Unfortunately, the person I chose isn't available until the end of August. Always better to wait for someone with the right experience instead of just getting it over with.

We talked again about botox. I just can't imagine spending that kind of money on something so temporary. Something about it feels like a band-aide; I don't think I can stomach more band-aides right now. I WANT THIS STOPPED! I WANT MY LIFE BACK!
