Vannessa, I feel for you because I went through a long time with head, neck and jaw issues.

For myself, I would put Hot wet towels on the back of my neck and upper shoulders as well

as a hot wet wash cloth around my chin and jaws. I'd stand by the bathroom sink so that

every time the clothes got cold, I would reheat them under hot water and wring them out.

It was a timely process each and every day but got the muscles to relax.

I also was prescribed physical therapy where the approach was the same with

wet hot packs first and then the therapist would work on releasing the trigger points.

Eventually Vanessa, the pain disappeared, as I worked on my meditation and relaxation

techniques. :) xx

I know how difficult it is when it seems to go on and on. I felt very alone with

this pain because no one around me understood. The rolling of eyes when I'd

be doing hot paks every night but the physical therapist did understand and

was able to help me.

Yes you do need to get some help again. I don't know if I mentioned that it was

a Rheumatologist that was overseeing my pain and ordering the physical therapy.

My regular GP didn't really understand what I was going through. Wish you well :) xx
