Hi Doodle bug7,
I read your response and was curious if what I have is Anesthesia Delorosa as well. I had the MVD procedure done in 2004 to remove a tumor from the trigeminal nerve area and ever since then I have been numb from my forehead to my chin. Is this similiar to what you are going through? Is there any medication that you use or have used that have helped out. The numbness is always there and I have the tightness/pulling sensations as well as the shocks around my lip/nose area. Is there anything I could do to help out with this?
Thanks,

Oh yeah, it has a name "Anesthesia Delorosa".
I hope you do better than me. Are you having any numbness? Do you hurt or just have freaky sensations? Doodle bug7
