A good peripheral nerve specialist will direct the diagnostic nerve blocks, and he prefers you use his pain management guy who he trusts is doing the nerve blocks properly - so you're getting an actual proper diagnostic response from patient.
Dr. Tollestrup in Las Vegas would be my recommendation - I've done 7 surgeries with him so far. To note, every doctor I've encountered isn't perfect - in this case with Tollestrup, he himself hadn't heard of Eagle's syndrome before, arguably because he's a peripheral nerve expert - and the vagus nerves aren't considered peripheral afaik.
An "LVI Global" trained dentist may be able to help you find a proper bite, to create an orthotic that will allow your low jaw to relax/stop guarding. They try to upsell you to full mouth reconstruction, where they actually make money, although the daytime+nighttime orthotics they make for you aren't cheap either. Part of their protocol is also doing a head/neck CBCT scan - which is what incidentally found the Eagle's syndrome for me.
