Wow there are so many storys here! mine is kind of a long one so here goes! i woke up about 2 and a half years ago with Bell's Palsy! (facial Paralysis on left side) and from that i have ended up with endless problems! i have got bilateral trigeminal neuralgia and occiptical neuralgia as a result of bell's i also have hemi facial spasms, hypercausis of the left ear (sensitive to all noise) and tmj as well, the bell's has cleared up i still have a droopy eye and chin when i get tired but otherwise i look normal! i am taking tegretol and having accupuncture for the pain, which are sort of working unfortunately i cant have any botox or surgery because otherwise i could get a paralysed face again it is too risky!

Low pain wishes to everyone!!!!
it was really interesting finding out how many different ways people have ended up with this horrific pain!
