For eight years doctors have suggested I
have temporal arteritis. However, my sed
rate is usually 2-7; and biopsy was
negative.My symptoms are pain and swelling
in the temporal artery areas. Many times
these symptoms are preceeded by severe
vise like pressure on the top of my head.
Usually occurs 2-3 times per week, often
seems to be related to changes in
barometric pressure...Although not
definitive.
A new doctor is now suggesting tmj could
be the cause of my headaches.
Has anyone ever experienced this type of
head pain? What has your experience with
treatment been.
