Painful! Definitely seems long enough to fully heal, plus you've already done the imaging (CT, MRI) which would be a best next step. Maybe you could try another specialist, though it sounds like you've already done everything correctly and in sequence. I hope you can find relief.

Thanks, it's not as bad as for some ppl but made me really rethink what's important in life and I'm 42 lol. Random event you can't control can be life changing. I have 3 more things on the list to try: - diagnostic temp nerve block around implant - bite / occlusion specialist - some blood work for those rare allergies (super unlikely but why not...)
