hi creekman,
i was first on the carbamazepine but it was really bad with the side effects and im now on gabapentin and thnakfully im not having no side effects from it at all but it isnt working as well as the carbamazepine did, so i take a couple of co-codamol if the pain gets too much. im back at the doctors this thursday and he's going to refer me to see a neurologist to see what they say.im just glad that ive got people to talk to whose in the same boat as noone i know understands what its like.i keep getting the sharp pain in my temple quit alot at the moment its awful.
