All I can really tell is that the left side of my head was really numb all of Monday night and part of the next morning.
I called the doctor who wants me to come in on the 25th - giving this 2 weeks to see if the steroid kicks in.....

I don't think that anything is going to help....

I really don't know what to do at this point - last night I woke up in the middle of the night scrathing my head to the point to where I had skin under my nails.......I now have shooting pains in my ears (although, this has been something I've had for years and well before the bike accident in 2008) I went to a ENT who thinks this is a neuralgia and recommended a neurologist.
I've had the shooting, stabbing scalp pains since 2008 and nothing so far has done anything

I was given this by my most recent neurologist:
Lidocaine And Prilocaine topical cream.
It didn't work and when I saw the doctor again he told he that essentially he thought this condition was stress related and sent me to a accupunture doctor.
I've been going o one for years . I resented the attitude of this doctor which was this wasn't really something he should be concerned with.
The sharp shoot pains have mov ed on to my ears and the pain at times is overwhelming.
