does anyone with atypical face pain only take elavil?? i always thought it has to be a combination of at least 2 drugs.
what do you take for ATN?

I take 1500 mg of Neurontin but it doesn t help to easy the pain between the lip and the nose which makes talking very hard; The muscles tighten up and I feel pain in every syllable. ATN people are not good candidate for surgery, so I am still looking for help. I take Wellbutrin as an AD. Good luck and hugs and share if you find help. Best from Buffy.
