I have TMJ on the right side of my jaw.
I must have slept weird last night because I have major joint pain on the LEFT side of the jaw right now. Major as in "can't chew without pain".
I took some ibuprofen about an hour and a half ago, but hurts like hell still.

It reacts nearly identical to TMJ, so I understand what you're dealing with. Do you have any Flexeril or some other muscle relaxer? How about Sulindac or Clinoril? I hope you feel better soon. :(
