Thumbs up

WELL...... i'm trying to figure out why i've got TN,

I've got this idea that my IIH could have something to do with it as the trigeminal nerve starts way up there in the good old brain, so figured if the pressures high in there and squeezing my brain, surely it's possibly for this nerve to be being squeezed or lent on too right!?

I'm due to see my GP in a couple of weeks for a review on my Gabapentin tablets anyway so i will ask him but i just wondered, as i've figured everything else out myself!. I found the IIH by going to the optician for an eye test which discovered the flammation of the optic nerves, which got me sent for an MRI which found the IIH which saved my eye sight and my life!!
