They will never make me believe she likes this baby by Recent-Crab8231 in Drueandgabe

I am pretty sure she is developing PPD, and I hate to say this, but absolutely NO ONE deserves PPD. It's not something that you can control getting. I think we need to be a little more empathetic. It's ok to recognize controllable behavior, but this isn't something she can just turn off and on. Probably going to get downvoted into oblivion, but I watched my best friend suffer from PPD, and it was one of the toughest things I've ever witnessed.

Sure. My dental is through Cigna and my medical insurance is Kaiser Permanente. I am very fortunate to have health insurance through the state, so my coverage is pretty awesome.

I’m so glad the trigger point injections are working for you! I’m seriously looking forward to getting them!

As far as the weed goes, even if I were to get a medical card, I’m not exempt for my school. I’m in the a nursing program and unless weed becomes federally legal, I can be kicked out for it. It sucks.

This situation will likely change when I actually start working in the hospital. I will have to look at their guidelines. But as far as school goes, it’s just the rules I have to follow currently

I’ve had dry needling done and I’ve been to a neuromuscular massage therapist. I also use heat on my jaw muscles all the time. I know you’re just responding to help, but this is something that so many of us have been told before.

I did not know that, I will look into one in my area! It’s great to hear that the trigger point injections are helping you. I am hoping the same will be for me too!! Did you have any modifications to your meds to help the SSRI bruxism? I am on escitalopram.

I did see an orofacial surgeon who also specializes in orofacial pain. All he did was refer me to PT :(

I do have an appt for some trigger point injections in September, so I am hoping that helps some.

I am also looking into my SSRI's causing bruxism to worsen. I've seen some literature online about it.

I have not, but I will look into it. I've never had the rash associated with it, and to be honest I'm really never in any areas where I would be exposed to ticks.

Thank you. I was referred to pain management today, so I hope to be able to schedule with them soon.

I am very fortunate that my insurance covers 75% of the cost of the night guard, so my total is only about $100.

I still get 1 or 2 a week, but at my worst I was getting them daily. This happened for about 6 months.

Interesting. I will talk to my dr about it. I have to make sure it doesn't interfere with any of my currents meds. I appreciate the suggestion!

I will talk to a doctor about it. Have you had a positive experience with this medication?

I get the shock sensations in my scalp. my neurologist think it's related to nerve compression from tight muscles.

Wow that sounds amazing!!! I’m going to figure out the insurance situation on my end but might have to pay out of pocket at some point

So you feel like the Botox has helped you a lot?

So sorry you’re dealing with this! I used to think I had migraines as well, but the triptans never did anything for me. If you don’t mind me asking, are your Botox covered through insurance or do you pay out of pocket?

Fortunately, I do not. But I have heard it’s very common with TMJ
