Hello. Just putting in my 3 cents worth about following up with all the information you can gather. MRIs are important to rule out MS lesions and tumors. My client had sensations similar to mine but her MRI showed a tumor...small, benign and easily accessible. My MRI showed nothing - for which I was profoundly grateful. Although I'd rather have a benign tumor over MS, I am 50-50 on TN vs. tumor. Right now, pain is minimal and controlled with Lamictal.

See a neurologist as soon as possible. Then see another. Have the MRI, thin sliced version. Read all you can find. You are not crazy, its not your imagination, and the sooner you can control the pain the better you will be now and in the future.

Best,
Lola
