New to group

Posted by OliviaD @olivia52, Nov 14, 2016

New to this group. Hello! I have learned a few things from other conversations. I have chronic facial pain and most medications make it worse or add on a headache. Also struggling with anxiety for about the same time. Most anti-depressants make my eye hurt worse. Any others out there with the same issues? Neurology has done all the can...

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Chronic Pain Support Group.

If you are asking about medical cannabis you need to go to a state where it is legal such as CO. Go to one of their legal dispensaries and the people working there can guide you as to how it all works for what you want.Nancy Shermoen~

My wife has TN and her pain is at times one side and often both sides. It is a shame that so many doctors do not recognize this in diagnosing. This is pain that is hard to believe. Best wishes to you!
