trigeminal neuralgia
Added 2023-12-12 12:11:32 +0000 UTCOk, let me explain…. Today is the big day. I’ve been experiencing incredible pain through my face, jaw, ear, neck, arm and hand on my right side. A severe case of Trigeminal neuralgia is the diagnosis and a tumor in my face is the culprit.
The last month has been excruciating but today I get my surgery to release me from this hell that visits in crashing waves of pain. After my surgery I will be posting to here about my recovery. Have you ever heard of or experienced trigeminal neuralgia?
“Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition that causes painful sensations similar to an electric shock on one side of the face. This chronic pain condition affects the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain. If you have trigeminal neuralgia, even mild stimulation of your face — such as from brushing your teeth or putting on makeup — may trigger a jolt of excruciating pain. You may initially experience short, mild attacks. But trigeminal neuralgia can progress and cause longer, more-frequent bouts of searing pain. Trigeminal neuralgia affects women more often than men, and it's more likely to occur in people who are older than 50.” Mayo Clinic
