Hi ellacraig!
I used to be a coffee addict. I rarely touch it now. I drink a lot of decaf green tea and homemade decaf kombucha. I do drink caffeinated green tea too, usually 1-2 cups a day.
My pain is likely originated from scoliosis. I have shoulder pain, neck pain, tense muscles, tension headaches. My periods are also way more painful than they used to be and I get bladder spasms, mostly around that time. I had a bladder infection, likely viral according to the urologist, that took months to clear. The spasms started after that. It's much better now that a lot of time has passed. My doctor diagnosed me with tmj disorder a few years ago and wanted me checked for endo. I declined because she said they would have to do surgery to diagnose and even then there isn't much they can do to help you anyway. Fwiw I don't think I have endo. As far as the tmj, meh. I think I need to see a chiro. I've been trying to incorporate stretches for scoliosis in my day, helps some. Mostly I've just decided to be stubborn and not let it get to me. Still gonna do what I want to do.
