Hiya,
If you've been following my posts, I recently got results back from a head CTscan that raised questions about certain things. I've been diagnosed with OA of right and left jaw joint and also have Temperomandibular Joint Dysfunction :shock: The dentists were thinking I might have had a lesion or vascular mass in cheek. They called me today to say that after speaking to a radiographer and another consultant, they don't see anything mass-like in cheek. I've to go back in a few months time for another CT scan when they will compare the 2 scan pictures. I'm not out of the woods yet but it's much better news than I had thought! They think it might just be me I have an extra nerve in my right side of face (so do my 2 sisters!) which is quite unusual apparently :? so they could be right?
