@rnlorena Thank you for your comments. I am a typical occiptal Neualgia sufferer. Pain belgan on my right neck muscles, travels up right side of my head
. They put me on Gabapentin about two years, I finally slowly took myself off did not feel
it helped at all. Ablazgon was performed three years ago (nothing). I have Neuralgist, but they
will never give me anothing for pain, if you go to emergency they give yu mingraine cocktell but
when that wears off you are back at #1. They have sent me to a pain centre He gives me trigger
shots, of course they help but a few months later another attack (they last three weeks, all day
all night). Ice pack, heat, massage etc. I read on this sight about a person who sounds just like
I feel, same probelm, they gave her Valium/Medrol shots. Beleive you me I will be asking for
this combo my next shot date Jan 12, 2026. So thankful to share our common problems. Other
than these awful ice pick headachs I am in good leath. Many Many Thanks
