We are pretty easy going here, but I just wanted you to know how to bump .... if you didn't already. Some people visit here with very few skills or little computer experience. And they sometimes need a little help.

After my back surgery on Dec, 2013, I did not have any of the Trigemenal symptoms (if that's what they are) , sharp electric like jolts, like pins being shoved into all parts of my scalp.
The grace period lasted until late May, and now into the first week of June the symptoms are back.
I see my (old) neurologist on June 11th and I know pretty much what he is going to tell me "I think this is a carry over from your bicycle accident in 2008, and is probably located in your brain stem"
This tells me nothing and I'm not sure what to specifically ask him - what comes to mind is "what is this, and what can be done, and/or what do i do?"
As I have mentioned, when these symptoms first appeared (three months after the accident - Sept. 2008) My dermatologist treated this "itching" with steroid hots etc, until it came to all of us that this was a neurological situation.
I mention the dermatologist because he now points to significant hair loss as pointing to these "electrical" shocks.
I'm at a loss here. I don't know what i have. I'm taking 800 mg of Tegretol.
Taking Slo-Mag and anything else that anyone tells me might work, NAC - 3x a day total of 600 mg....
I've read so many posts that people write not knowing what to do - I'm so sympathetic to all of you.
