Hey guys,
New to this forum but I'm seeking some help.
So I was diagnosed by my dentist with TMJ. He said I had an extremely bad case. I've done tests for sleep disorders and what not.
I'm starting my treatment next week with a night and day mouthguard, followed by orthodontics and hopefully that should resolve my TMJ case.
My question is , since the past week, I have had IBS symptoms. I went to the doc, and she said it's too early to confirm and to come back in two weeks. I want to know if anyone thins there is a correlation between TMJ and IBS. SInce TMJ affects the nerves, I wouldn't seem all that surprised if that is indeed the case. Couple weeks ago, I went through an episode of tingly fingers and digestive problems with the sensation of food being stuck in the throat. I'm worried because I find IBS to be a really annoyance.
I'm hoping for some good news, can someone please enlighten me :)
Thanks guys!
