I have never dealt with Trigeminal neuralgia before but I used to know someone that did. She was put on a medication called Neurontin (which is also used to control seizures in people who have epilepsy) and had very good results. I would recommend consulting a neurologist (a doctor that diagnoses and treats diseases and disorders involving the Nervous system) if you haven't already to see what kind of suggestions they may have as well to help your pain.

yes... have had multiple attacks over 20 years. I had 3 kids with no epidural or pain meds, but the TG is probably the worst pain I have ever encountered and dealt with. Virtually nothing makes a dent in it within the first 8 days.
