The next day after my first attack it felt like I had a migraine. Not that I ever really had one but from the way I was feeling it sounded like one. Bad headache, nausea, light-headedness, general weakness.
During the attacks the nerve pain was pulsating, like I felt it with each heart beat. The worst pain ever, so bad that I cried out loud enough to scare my dog who was down stairs. Lol. At the time I thought it felt sort of like an electric shock type of feeling combined with pain. It came from the jaw/ear area.
Four days now since the last attack. I've been working the trigger points. My jaw/tmj feels looser and more relaxed. I'm crossing my fingers big time. I think the anxiety of waiting for another attack to happen is almost as bad as the actual pain of the attack. I would be so happy if it turned out to just be trigger points from painting the ceiling.
