Grinding Teeth
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Is anyone else grinding their teeth? My bottom teeth hurt so bad from the grinding and my jaw is so sore. I am doing this during the day and not at night. I am taking Alprazolam ER 0.5mg 4 times a day. Helps some days more than others. I do 70g of Amovig and Botox injections.
