I try to keep as active as possible. My doctor placed me on Bu-Spar (an anti anxiety drug) and Flexeril for spasms and to promote deep sleep. I also use a Bed Buddy for the sore spots. It is a tube sock like thing that is filled with rice. You heat in the micro for about two minutes. A Jacuzzi is great, too. My husband gives great back rubs and that helps. I have TMJ and tinnitus. I wear a mouthpiece that is realigning my bite. My teeth are too close together for braces. Luckily when the device starts causing too much pain, I can remove it for a few minutes. Walking and swimming are life savers. I wish you all the best. Stacey
