Chronic Illness and Relationships

Chances are, if you have a chronic illness, you have dealt with its impact on your relationships. Whether it be with your significant other, family, or colleagues, chronic illness has a profound impact on your life and those around you. Relationships and sex are important parts of life, and having both of them [...]

Detoxification

There comes a time in your disease when you just have to take a stand. It may not be what is recommended by your doctor, but you know in your heart that it is something you have to do for yourself. Having said that, I am now going to tell you about my experience with going [...]

Where I Have Been

The growth of TMJ Friends astounds me - as of December we had almost 1,000 members. At the same time though, it becomes hard to manage the technical aspects of the website, the advocacy work, writing, and of course the cost. Things began to unravel and I found that I hadn’t written in [...]

She documented everything (like me), and even though some of the statistics and studies she wrote about might be considered old, [...]

Many people tend to take their diagnosis at face value, and place their treatment in the hands of a doctor. They are often too emotional to take charge. The detached will start [...]

Post Op Day 12 - Over 25mm!

This morning I was sitting at the computer having a conversation with my Mom, when I noticed that my opening seemed to be quite large. I measured it, and without any stretching what so ever, and hardly any eating yet that morning, my opening was 25 millimeters!!!!!!!!! 25mm without stretching or physical therapy [...]

Day 8: Stitches Out

no more stitches I got my stitches out today and my surgeon says everything is going well. He will be writing the surgeon that did the implants to get a schedule for my physical therapy with the Therabite, and I will go back in 10 days for a check [...]
