I, too have the same problem.  The pain really zings!  After my dry weight was adjusted, it went away.  If too much fluid is taken off, the pain returns.

I have this when I take my first bite of a meal.  Terrible jaw pain.  It's gone after the first bite.  Started long before D.  I have no idea what causes it.
