Well, I am diagnosed as having TMJ, along with the MS.

My TMJ dentist suspected Trigeminal Neuralgia prior to my official MS diagnosis.

I always was under the impression that TN would affect 1 side, not 2.

This is from the center top of my head, down to my neck (involving all of my head, minus the forehead), and pain in my cheekbones. Not side specific.

Ugh, if only I could buy Aleve here!! WITHOUT a prescription! If I have inflammation in my jaw, I've no doubt that it could extend into other areas of the head. I've been here before.

One thing's for sure... either my burning mouth crap that I've dealt with so long is on it's way out finally and has moved to involve my head, or the head's experiencing such pain that I'm not focusing on the burning mouth. Silver lining in every cloud?
