TN woes - feel like I've been punched in the face today!

This is not usual as normally my meds (lovely gabapentin) keep the pain mostly at bay, but today is a painful day and the entire side of my face feels battered.

Sigh.

My sympathies. I have a sensitive tooth at the mo, and it has given my TN an excuse to flare up and give me hell. Upping the gabapentin here!

Urgh... sympathies for you too. Any little thing on that side can cause a flare up. I usually don't have to take all 3 if my doses but I am at the moment until this goes away.
