Symptoms started a year ago, feels like my bite is focused on right side everytime I eat or drink, difficulty swallowing, pain in back right side of my throat connecting to my jaw, also pain on right side of Adam’s apple. Right eye twitches when swallowing or sneezing. I’ve seen 2 ENTs, 3 physical therapists, 4 different primary care doctors, my dentist, had CT scan, MRI, X ray of jaw, and a swallowing test. Nothing showing nothing helping. They’ve prescribed me xanax, lexapro, 3 different muscle relaxers, steroid pack, 800mg ibuprofen. The only time I have relief is the first few hours when I wake up, symptoms gradually come back throughout the day. I’ve been doing stretches everyday and facial pressure points and different jaw alignment methods. Occasionally my arms and hands and legs will pulse after swallowing very hard.
