I don't feel I have "triggers"

Does anyone else have TN and feel they don't have triggers for it? My pain is located in the area near the corner of my nose but I don't feel like I have anything specific that triggers it. I was recently diagnosed.

Hi,
I don't have trigger points as far as touching my face, brushing teeth or hair or anything like that.
However the cold and wind do often kick start my face up.
Are you on any meds for your TN?

Tracy :)

Tegretol

Yes I am on Tegretol. I just started it this week and I am ramping up on the dosage. I started the first 3 days on 200mg. Now I have moved on to 400mg per day for 3 days and we are going up to 600mg. I am SO tired. I wonder if I'll get used to the medication.:confused:
