Hi. I'm brand new here and your thread caught me right away. You are describing what is going with me right now, if you add the parotid gland swelling - all one sided. As with you, comes and goes. In addition, pain behind and/or under ear is horrendous. This may be ATN, am trying to get dx, looking for new neurologist.... may see Dr. Casey. Anyway, sorry that you are suffering also with this. I take low dose Lyrica which helps but doesn't stop/prevent. Tegretol and neurontin just have too many side effects for me, have used them in past.
Glad to have found this site!
