Hello and thanks for the reply,

NO, the jaw is not supposed to be hurting... ever. I don't bite: this causes the lips pain. I used to be a professional, so I know. My jaw hurts because the neck muscles are pulling it down to prevent biting. That's why I'm looking for ways to increase facial strength overall. I can do the reed exercises fine, but when I put the reed back into the instrument, it's as if I didn't do anything.

I think your "quivering exhaustion" might be a good sign : you're not getting into bad habits. If you're starting, then you won't get discouraged with the memories of once being much better!

Best of luck!
