Sherry,

So sorry for what you're going through. One thing possible about stomach. I had terrible pains in stomach and had my gall bladder checked with sonograms a few times. They found nothing. I persisted and finally someone found the stone. It was located higher up than usual. When it was removed, it was completely diseased. Anyway, the pain lasted maybe four months until they
confirmed that it was my gall bladder. I knew it all along, as gall bladder disease runs in the family. Not saying yours is gall bladder, but perhaps one more check.

I also have TNJ. I use self-hypnosis to relax the jaw and it helps a lot. Self-hypnosis might help with some of the other pain as well. I was taught the procedure years ago by a doctor in New York, but you can probably find someone reputable in your area. It takes a while to get the hang of it but it does work for a number of things.

Hope you feel better soon.
