Welcome to Neurotalk A1. Sorry you are getting all kinds of pain and numbness. The body,neck aches arent really a symptom of T.N. nor the shocking, numb in finger and toes. The rest sure dose sound like a T.N. monster messing with you/
as far as being put on medication some meds for T.N. are used for other pains too. what type was mentioned? T.N. or an aggravated trig nerve dose not always show up on scan or MIR.
Vit. B good to take for nerves in genral so Id keep at that. Have you tryed heat on side of head, neck or face? some of us find it helps calm things down .
Keep seeing doc and make list of issues maybe even get 2ed oppinion from another neuro or a pain doc. and most of all learn all the info you can about the symptoms you are getting . Knowlege is power .read the stickies at the top some great info, and list of meds that help somewheres up there too. Keep us posted and let us know if we can help you. It is nice to meet you and I am sorry it is because of being with pain like we are. It would be nice if we were both winners of the lottery or something eh?!! Praying you find the right answers soon and sending low pain wishes to you.
PEACE
BMW
