Default Possible Trigeminal Nerve?

I haven't been diagnosed with TN yet, but my dr thinks it may be possible. So, I hope I am not wasting anyone's time, but was wanting your input on this. I had an endoscopy in Dec. 2006 and 24 hours after the procedure I got a headache. I have had headaches constantly since that time. Many drs have diagnosed me with TMJ, and I have worn braces for the last 4 years along with injections in jaw. I have also been treated for migraines with many different meds. The meds work sometimes, but not always. And they usually make me sick which is not good if I am looking at TN. The pain is centered around my right ear, right temple, right eye, and sometimes my right nostril feels stuffed up. Most days it is a dull ache in my ear. When it flares, which is usually every 2 weeks or so, I get sharp pain shooting through my ear and eye and sometimes from the top of my head. I started seeing a specialized chiro about 2 years ago where he works on the atlas bone at the top of spine. What is weird is that after 6 months of seeing him I felt great. Then around Sept. of this year the pain returned. Now my dr feels I may have TN. Does this sound possible? Thank you so much for your thoughts!
