Donna I am sorry you are here for T.N. but I am gald you found your way here. Welcome
The first thing that would be very helpful is for you to read the stickies up at the top of this forum .
I would also learn what your triggers are and then avoid them.Like wind is pretty common trigger for us so many of us use face mask when we HAVE TO be outside in the wind , there is much info in the stickies caring for one with t.n. and the useful websites etc...
Also the t.n. bible Striking Back book is extremely helpful .
Are you on meds I think I read you were on one and had reaction now you are on another and adjusting to it ?? take your meds as prescribed give body time to get used to it . and like i see you did if any reaction happens call doc a.s.a.p. or go to e.r.
Stress also bring the pain levels up so find ways to relax like mediation or warm bath , calm music aroma therapy... try not to worry to much if that is possible.
also coming here and having contact with others who understand what it is like dealing with t.n. is a comfort . we are like a family and help each other , sharing info, tips, a hug just listening...your not alone and I am glad you found us.
If you have questions or just wanna chat we are here.
I do so hope the new meds are helping !
Low Pain wishes to you, let us know how things are going for you..we care!
PEACE
BMW
