Laureen,

So far so good. I have some sore gums, sometimes aching, but not bad at all. And it isn't where the TN was striking. I think some of it is from the rhizotomy--it was covered by numbness for a long time. As my neurologist said, Tegretol will cover all nerve pain, not just Trigeminal pain. So it has also been covered by the medication.

How great that you were able to sit outside on a windy, cold day with no pain!!!
