Hi.
I'm a 31yr old female. I have recently been going through all the same sort of symptoms as you have listed, including the jaw pain. I think it is hormone related as I have heard of other people going through it too. I am currently getting tested and may be referred to an endocrinologist shortly to find out if my symptoms are due to early menopause. So if I find out anymore about it, I will let you know. Some people also get similar pain in response to stress, so would be worth catching up with your doctor too, to see if they can shed any light on it.
