I have been on antibiotics,Medrol and recently valtrex, although I have no idea why. I have Percocet and Klonopin for pain. Was also given Soma for neck muscle pain. I have an appt to see a neuro in two weeks. He is a well known neuro in my area. The pain varies...sometimes a 10. Warm compresses sometimes help. I would love to get more names of docs and will pm you.
Thank you.

Hi Vowel Lady, I get ear pain all the time with this and my docs have told me its due to and part of TN. I always thought the ear had its own nerve.
Anyway, the pain you describe is very similar to mine. I do get some really bad burning attacks that are pretty intense and those are similar to the classic lightning bolts I get. I would be interested to hear what the neuro tells you after you see him/her. Take care
