I have an old friend with MS and TN. She has had the surgery twice in the past but I think hers is still pretty bad. She no longer posts online though. She took Tegretol for hers too. Sometimes she would stop taking it because of the side effects but would start again when it flared up again. I hope this will subside for you soon.

Thanks, Wiz. I called my neuro and he increased the Tegretol to 3 pills (150 mg) twice a day. I hope it works.

It hurts to eat now even on the left side. Sometimes when I talk it hurts.

Wish I knew what causes it to flare up.
