my dad had some problems with "shooter" pains in his temples and jaw. his neurologist diagnosed his as trigeminal nerve problems and prescribed carbatrol...it kept his terrible pain at bay. He couldnt even shave without these shooting pains...

Again, mostly when i graze it with my glasses, put makeup on, or wrap a towel around head after a shower, i avoid sleeping on my right side when it is really tender.....the shingles idea is an interesting option, never had them that i know of, but if chicken pox could be cuprit, had those.....looking at going to a neurologist next....any answers out there???
I know this is an incredibly old thread, but by chance you’re still around here, did you ever get any answers? I’m a 37 year old female going down there very path, having the majority of these tests run as well without any definitive answers. Even did a cycle of Valtrax and no change. My pain started less than a week after having my next adjusted at the chiropractor.
