Welcome to NT!

You've come to a great place for support and understanding!
I'm sorry you are dealing with these issues. You are not alone tho. There are so many others in similar situations who will be happy to share and give input.

Your symptoms are very important because they are affecting your quality of life. I'd highly recommend you seek medical help before frightening yourself with possibilities. I can understand how you are feeling though. Before I came here, I was all over the internet searching for answers and I ended up convincing myself I had 10 different terminal diseases

Here's a couple of forums I think might be of great help to you.

Headache:

Trigeminal Neuralgia:

Feel free to roam around and holler if you have any questions.
It's great to have you here!

Caring,
Rae

Hi,

Welcome to NT.

You're not alone here. We do understand.

It is hard, sometimes, to get a test you think you need, if for nothing else, your peace of mind.

With a long history of migraines and facial numbness, I think a doctor would not take that too lightly and should treat appropriately.

All too often, I've been so wrong about my thoughts/diagnosis. Give a good doctor a chance to address your symptoms.

A peace of mind is worth a lot. I would rather know the truth and deal with it than to not have an answer for my complaints.

I might suggest you keep a journal, with your daily complaints, meds, foods, sleep, caffeine intake. Rate your pain level.

Keep doctors numbers and other communications in your journal for future reference. Can help you keep up with things.

Take care... (Broken Wings)
