Agreed and I’m the meantime get checked at an urgent care if you need pain medication until you can get seen by a specialist.
I went to a chiropractor for TMJ 20 years ago and I found it to be very proactive and have had minimal issues since.

I did 15 years in sales.
For me, sales was a soul sucking, tedious, thankless grind.
I took a 12 week CNA course through CCRI and my life has changed for the better significantly! I went from making $84k/yr to $47k/yr but I’m pursuing an RN and will be back where I started financially in a few years.
Nursing isn’t for everyone, but I get to help people, and I have GREAT job security. Interviews are basically a formality as hospitals are DYING for CNAs and RNs.
Best of luck in your new endeavor, sales is the birds! (Ok, ok, it’s just not a fit for ME, whatever :-)

I would go to the hospital. They usually have everything and if not can point in right direction

I haven't found anyone in RI, I've gotten treatments in Wellesley and North Attleboro. I posted another comment with a link for you.

Lots of construction companies are looking for administrative assistants. In office job that works with project managers.
The RI Blood Center always seems to be hiring as well.

The Fidelity gig is for a call center type role FYI. People tend to move out of the spot after a year or so to other positions or quit. But you need to pass series 7 exam (they pay you to study) but if you fail it, you get let go.

My daughters school has a program for the high schoolers working with them, learning how to weld and they’ve made some amazing pieces. Such a cool skill to have!

I worked administration in a cardiology office and I can confirm, it’s an awesome job. Decent pay and benefits, good people to work with, and aside from the once in a blue moon difficult patient, everyone is pleasant.

Directly from the article you "read" Mr. PHD
"Is there a cannabis hyperemesis syndrome cure? The only known treatment to permanently get rid of CHS is to stop cannabis use completely"

I had Botox injections in my jaw and it has helped tremendously. Dental associates of RI on Atwood ave did it for about 600$

Look for a pain management physician. I saw one in North Attleboro and he was fantastic. I've also tried the craniofacial clinics around Boston, but none were that great tbh. The folks at Tufts just told me I was stressed and needed therapy to stop clenching my jaw- even though there is a clear deformity in my bone shape on x-rays...
Someone mentioned Botox below, and it definitely works wonders- but my insurance doesn't cover it (and I have really, really good coverage). You can also try a stem cell treatment as well, which also helped me for several months until it wore off (some patients get relief for 2+years from it though).

It happens when you stop smoking, but why read the article when you can assume

This is true. I have pretty bad TMJ and this was AMAZING. Almost 6 months nearly pain free. I could have conversations, I could chew food, it was brilliant. Unfortunately, my insurance won't cover it so I can't get the only treatment that actually helps aside from an eventual surgery that I will need.

There's a funny Lewis Black bit from like 25 years ago about the scientific studies that does a good job of highlighting the limitations of this stuff.

Yeah I broke my spine in four places in 2016 from a trapeze accident and the only thing that helped was when we saged our living room and drank probiotic tea

Someone I know who has this same problem said botox injections help. Almost immediate relief.
