Default where should one start?

I have been having pain for 6 months. Originally thought jaw/ear pain. In the last week, it has become debilitating sharp pain through jaw, cheek, behind eye as well as the ear/jaw constant pain. I have had to leave work with nausea from the pain. MRI was fine and now doctor is on vacation for the next week and 1/2. I am on Tramadol in the meantime, but trying to figure out 1) how to function at work while only partly controlled with this and 2) how to approach doctor about this pain in a way I can be heard. I felt they did not hear how entirely debillitated I am by this (as exhibited by not getting me in before vacation). Any suggestions appreciated. Clearly I have not been diagnosed with TN (or anything at this point) but it is the only thing that seems to even remotely fit....
