Outside of medications, have you found ways to calm down the TN beast?
I don't quite understand this one myself, since I've been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, which is notoriously the disease of heat intolerance... but when I get severe pain from TN, getting into a steaming hot bath calms down the pain for me. I'd even go as far as saying it's more beneficial for me than the medications have been. I had horrendous pain earlier today, and I soaked tonight for 1 hour. By the end of the bath, the pain had almost completely subsided (this is Atypical TN mind you).
