    Katie, please go to Google and look up TMJ...that is probably what you have...nothing serious, but it comes from grinding your teeth at night due to your anxiety...A simple plastic appliance over the bottom teeth will take care of that...hope it helps, sweetie...

    Yep,, afraid so.  Just another lovely anxiety symptom.  Try to do something that relaxes your body, bath, exercise, massage.  I've run out of new symptoms,now, they are just starting from the beginning!!  Trying not to be frightened any more just trying to get on with  things.  Its hard I know. xx
