Have you talked to your Neuro about your pain and asked for some med to relieve it? Not all meds work for Nerve pain but I believe there are some effective ones out there.

Feel Better..
I have not talk to the Dr. yet, it just started the other day. I don't know if it's a sinus thing or not. I try really hard NOT to take decongestants unless I have to because it brings on an asthma attack.
