I don't really know if this is TN. It isn't like what I have experienced, but some others here may have an experienced something like that.

I'm shocked though that you would suffer such agony and not go to a doctor for it! No one should put up with suffering if there is any way not to! And some kinds of things (maybe not this, but many things) will get worse and harder to treat if we don't treat them quickly. Please be kind and caring to yourself and don't suffer in silence. I'm glad it seems to be getting better, but that doesn't mean it can't get worse sometime. If you are prepared for it - knowing what it is and what to do for it - you will be better able to avoid suffering.

Here's hoping for pain free days!
