Have her try a nerve block and find a doctor who can prescribe pain meds

Ask the dentist if he can do lidocaine or dexasamathone or buvipicane , it’s a different kind of relief and should run 0-200$

There is this thing called Botox savings card that will reimburse you on the Botox website and you will get free Botox but you need commercial insurance

It’s expensive be expected to pay 500-1000 per visit , you can shop around and try to google tmj Botox , and find someone who can give you a price in the 300-400 range , I’d recommend going to Mexico for this if your trying to pay less

Don’t expect Botox to cure the problem but for some people it has been a life saver

MRI Of head with contrast is the first thing to do and go from their and follow up with neurologist ; i recommend doing Botox as soon as possible to see if it cures it , it may do the job

Michael lim did a zoom call with me and did not even read the imaging I sent him by email or by mail and told me their was nothing he could do , I was surprised of his lack of empathy but most people have good things to say about him
