Sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia
 

I occasionally suffer from Sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia. Anybody have experience with this condition ?

:D funny.

me too.

Although if you get it without the cold stimulus and if it lasted a long time then that would be worrying.

Should I use ice or heat to relieve it ?

Not ice.

Try heat.

Fight fire with fire, use ice!;)

I found some interesting work done regarding this...

Lara,

You exposed me. I was avoiding using the household name for it.

Silly Lara! :rolleyes:

When I read your post this morning I laughed out loud.

I then needed to go out but while I was out I was thinking that maybe I got it wrong again. I do that sometimes. Then, of course, I felt bad for laughing at your post.

First post I see after getting back from Michigan and I immediately thought this was trickery!!! I had a good laugh.

I don't get brain freezes! Nope. It goes straight down my spine and I contort into unpleasant shapes. But I love my arctic rush from Dairy Queen. So much so I bought my own snow machine and it makes instant snow with the ice from my freezer. Just working on flavoring.
