I glad we are both corresponding,its helpful for us.
Ive have not done yoga.Im all for it.
I tried so many things,im exhausted.Nowadays its so hard for me to attempt anything.My body,mind and emotions are pretty tired out.
I recently was put on oxycodine,1per.day,10 mil.
It helps,but Dr's dont advise taking it.
Due to all the laws changing,they are leery about giving this drug.After time goes by,it doesent work ,then you need to up,or take an extra.Its not a good idea.
So i had more shots,2 days ago,and im starting to worry.My head is hurting since the shots.I get about 25 per session.I hope its not making my trigeminal nerve worsen.Im thinking about stopping them.
Dr scheduled me botox on the next visit.
Im thing ,i might cancel.I have some conserns.Why did you stop.Can you tell me how long you went for them??Were they botox??I look forward to hearing from you..Take Care..

Hi, just sent your email to my dentist friend. Do you have any molds for upper and lower mouth?If so he will be glad to make you some thin ones, no charge. I could give you his email, but am not sure if it is safe. But let me know if you have molds.Elaine(my middle name)

@connielaine, I apologize if I misunderstand, but what did you mean by not safe? If by sharing an email in the public view, you are correct, we do not recommend that.

No problem Connie. If you are replying by email, I suggest clicking on the VIEW & REPLY button at the bottom of this message.

Then try the following:

- Find the member you want to message with privately.
- Click on their username (the @ symbol followed by their name)
- You will be brought to their profile. Under their name there should be a "Send @ a private message" icon right under his or her name.
- Click on that and you should then be sending a private message. Just add a subject line, and then type your message.

Feel free to ask me any other questions if this process does not work, I have not tried it from an iPad!

Has any one in this forum heard from either the Phoenix or the Rochester that anyone of the many people treated for BMS, whichever type, has been completely curd. Rafael.Thank you

burning tongue, what causes it, and is there any treatments?

Suzanne Mc | @suzannemc | Aug 17, 2017

I have had severe tongue pain for over three years. Been to 14 doctors with no help. Even had brain surgery to sever certain nerves - no help! Then the other day I had a panic attack and ended up in emergency room where doc prescribed xanax. The end of pain was immediate!!!!! Anyone else out there?
