hi all, im new to this group and only got diagnoised with TN last thursday. i must say im a little scared with it all. ive been researchig alot, but alot of the sites ive viewed have said that most people who get TN are over the age of 50, im only 22. ive been put on carbamazepine and its been making me feel pretty groggy and out of it so have had to have a couple days off work. fortunately i only work3 days but ive got a little girl so unfortunately its not made me any fun for her! im just wanting a little help in understandin the condition, my partner doesnt understand at all and thinks that im over exagerating when ive had the pain, he either doesnt understand that ive got tn for good or he doesnt want to admit it. has anyone else had any problems with partners?

Hi Carly, and welcome to NeuroTalk!

Be sure to have a look around. There are so many forums with different topics, and there are lots of caring and helpful people.

I'm sorry that your partner doesn't understand. Maybe with time and some education on TN, that will resolve.

Hi, Carly! It's nice to meet you! I don't know a lot about TN, but I know pain. And half of the people here know all too well how difficult it is for our partners and families to understand that we've changed, and aren't just wearing a mask. Wishing you the best...

Richie
