Has anyone experienced a stranged feeling in their jaw just before a migraine? I was sitting her talking tonight, got a spasm feeling in my left jaw and then started with the aura. I was just at the chiropractor last Thurs. with another migraine. I think it could be stress related, perhaps I'm clenching in my sleep? I have definitely been experiencing a marked increased in migraines since my 46th birthday.

Noel,

I actually have TMJ, so that triggered a lot of my migraines in the past. I also used to clench my jaw when I was sleeping as well as when I was awake. This was mostly because those times were high stress times. The more stress I was feeling, the worse my jaw pains/migraines. I noticed that I would wake up in the middle of the night or in the mornings and my head would be pounding and/or my whole face would be hurting.

I hope you feel better soon!
