When they severed my trigeminal nerve five years ago at Mayo clinic, I immediately became numb on that side of my face. Although numb, it became a burning sensation. Then came the ping on my lip because part of my lip is also numb. The squigley sensation started, the tightening started and more and more pain. It has been five years and it is still going strong. Oh yeah, it has a name "Anesthesia Delorosa".
I hope you do better than me. Are you having any numbness? Do you hurt or just have freaky sensations? Doodle bug7
