I HAD A CAR ACCIDENT IN 1987 FOLLOWED BY THE DIAGNOSIS OF CLUSTER HEADACHES WHICH ALMOST ENDED MY LIFE.
NOW 11 YEARS LATER TO THE MONTH I HAVE BEEN ATTACKED AGAIN WITH NO REASONING BEHIND IT. I WENT TO A TMJ SPECIALIST AND HE WANTS $5000 TO TRAT WITH A SPLINT. I WENT TO THE ER AND THEY GAVE ME COCAINE AND LIDOCAINE BUT THEN REFERRED ME TO A NEUROLOGISTS WHO PRESCRIPED IMITRIX AND VERAPIMIL WHICH IS REALLY HELPING.
NOW I DON'T THINK I SHOULD GO THROUGH THE SPLINT THERAPY BUT I'M AFRAID HE'LL CHARGE ME ANYHOW BECAUSE THE MOLDS AND DIAGNOSTICS ARE ALREADY DONE. WHAT SHOULD I DO????
