I have seen endless doctors and a neurologist. Last week saw a neurosurgeon who is referring me to a neurologist who specialises in migraine. I have no headache problems. My symptoms are bilateral facial numbeness which sometimes feels more like a burning sensation. It's pretty much a constant feeling though at times the discomfort is minimal. It's worse with stress. I also sometimes have neck ache. A recent MRI with contrast ruled out MS, brain tumours, cranial nerve compression (though it was commented that there are some small blood vessels close to the trigeminal nerve). The neurosurgeon doesn't believe i have any form of trigeminal neuralgia or neuropathy. I also have a burning sensation at times when i breath through my nose. Any thoughts, have had this now for about 15 months.
