Since my surgery, my headaches are few and far between, and I no longer have to wear a bite guard at night.<br /><br />I really hope that your insurance, or school district I guess, approves the surgery. I think it is a shame that this surgery is so often treated as solely cosmetic. While I had mine for mostly cosmetic reasons, it illustrated for me certain pains and discomforts that my jaw was causing, that I was attributing to other things--as it all went away after surgery. So many of these blogs mention people having a hard time getting approval for the surgery, and it just breaks my heart. (It should be classified as a birth defect in my opinion.)<br /> Good luck!Molliebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129725683617757703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1748573610052699240.post-63538441905040172662009-04-25T14:30:00.000-07:002009-04-25T14:30:00.000-07:00This is awful =/ Poor thing!

I can't imagine they'd deny you after hearing your story, unless they're completely heartless.laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01719908435212790015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1748573610052699240.post-64621242293963978902009-04-25T13:42:00.000-07:002009-04-25T13:42:00.000-07:00Awww, you poor thing.

I truly hope that everything works out with your insurance, surgery, and especially the migraines. I have a friend at my work that gets migraines like the ones you are having (though i dont think hers are jaw-related) quite often. She hasnt had them her whole life though, but they started right after she had her son (hes about 20 now). I dont know if this will work for you, but she has said to me that the ONLY thing she has ever tried that has made the slightest difference is Midol. Random, I know, and there are obviously no granatess it will work but I could help but pass on the tip. It might be worth a try? Anyways good luck with everything. I will be sending good vibes your way :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
