Thank you

Right side of mouth feels 'numbish', but importantly, it's not burning still (and I originally noted this December 5 and posted here that day). This is by far the longest I've gone with the burning sensation completely absent from a large area of my mouth.

It's difficult to tell how the left side's doing, as I have my cankers there (more of them, argh... non stop!) and a lot of neuralgia pain/migraine/headache and generally messed up sensory on the left. I don't believe the burning is very intense at all - maybe overshadowed by my other aches and pains?

I'm really curious if, in the New Year, I can try tapering off Clonazepam slowly. I want to wait still a little while to see if the burning comes back at all, or if it's absent. If it's not back, will have to try taking 2 instead of 3 on alternate days to see if the burning returns.

This will be the best Christmas gift ever if the burning is gone for good!
