Thanks. It is like a aching pain, but it is in the right sided of my face in my nostril, cheek, gums, teeth, forehead, temple, eye and ear. It comes and goes. I used to get head pressure on the left and then right side of my head but this has gone now, and migraines if I did too much. Cymbalta has really helped to reduce these symptoms though, and I just top up with regular nurofen and paracetamol. I understand that anticonvulsant medication might be an option for trigemenal neuralgia, I hope I don't have this, but it could be possible.
