Question
I was recently treated for follicular lymphoma.  My doctor says everything seems to have gone well, but I've developed an acute pain on the left side of my face.  One doctor says Temporal Mandibular Joint disorder and another says Trigeminal neuralgia.  I've checked the websites and, while I have symptoms of each, there are also differences.  Is this something a chiropractor could deal with.  The pain is excruciating.

Answer
Dear AllExperts User:

Here is an update on the petition project I emailed you about previously.  A few changes were needed to correct and clarify the petition, requiring me to restart using a new one.  The means that everyone who signed needs to resign the new form which is located at http://www.petitiononline.com/ajb2/petition.html

There really seems to be a good deal of support for this initiative to clean up misinformation about chiropractic in the most widely used career sourcebook for students.

Please visit the site, review the new petition and add your support.  I also am asking everyone to contact as many friends and family members as possible to get the message out either by emailing them directly or passing a message on to distribution lists and discussion forums.  I am certain that health professionals, students and smart consumers would appreciate learning more about this subject and join us.  If enough attention is raised I am confident we can make a difference and get this fixed!

Thank you again for your support,
