Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 MANY MANY years ago, i was in a car accident, one of the resulting injuries was my jaw becoming completely twacked. I used chiropractic for many years to manage the pain and mobility. One day about 7yrs ago, it just locked up and would not release. As a result I had a raging migraine for a month and could not eat anything that had to be chewed. The membrane in my jaw had torn and displaced itself. I gave in to the surgery and they were able to repair my torn membrane and sew it back into place. It was terribly painful, however... it was good that they did it as there was much damaged tissue and the joint was deteriorating which they cleaned up. I have more mobility now and it rarely pops. Before our move to NM i was using Chiropratic therapy to keep the jaw mobile as well as the rest of my body and to manage any pain, lately i have been just dealing with the pain as i still have not found a new chiro here. I waited 10 years to have the sugery though and did everything i could to not have it; much like your ear, i explored all other possibilities for healing before electing to have the surgery.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 Just curoious about the Jaw surgery since you brought it up. Do you ever take any of these? - Bromelain - 30 g proteins - EFA's - Flax seed oils - Fish Body Oils - Carnitine, Acetyl-L-carnitine or Lysine - Arnica Montana - Aloe Vera Juice - Calcium - Magnesium - Potassium - Creatine Just curious. Some of those aid in the repair, others support the functionality of the muscle and the supporting bone. Others are specifically for the repair of the tissue (proteins) and may aid in the prevention of future problems. I like flax and efa's cause they balance the hemispeheres of the brain. Coordination in eating (lets be real eating takes coordination) can use a bit of help from not using the muscles incorrectly. Should they become unstable the bromelain or arnica montata [i like Bromelain] can and should support breaking down of the proteins to support the building process of the connective tissue. Carnitine reduces the pain from soreness or irritation. There are muscles in the mouth or along the jaw. So ATP and ADP still follow. Carnitine supports that. Also reduces the lactic acids built up from continual use of a muscle [fatigue]. Alot of really good stuff. there are a few other things as well. there may be more opinions to follow so consider it under the direction of a physician. or one of these more experienced peeps.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I take many of those items in one form or another and had been taking many for years. IX-NAY with the Physician-NAY! No more medicos for me. I made my last and final break as of January 1 this year and will not see another medico (Conventional Medical practioner) ever again unless it is because i have contracted damage that requires surgery. I have toughed out the last 8 days with a horrendous resp. virus or whatever and seem to be coming thru. This noramlly would have had me in someone's office by now due to not being able to breathe! Thanks for the advice though ) Sylvia herbal remedies , " Kingofspades " <gsovereign@b...> wrote: > Just curoious about the Jaw surgery since you brought it up.
