Hello @michael1973, Welcome to Connect. It sounds like the symptoms similar to Trigeminal Neuralgia or Trigeminal Neuropathy depending one whether or not you have facial pain in addition to the tingling sensation. There is another discussion that might be helpful to determine whether or not it's similar to your symptoms.
-- Trigeminal Neuropathy vs. Trigeminal Neuralgia: Is it the same?

You mentioned that you have seen a neurologist. Have you thought about seeking help at a teaching hospital or major health facility like Mayo Clinic that use a multi-disciplinary team work approach to patient care?

@johnbishop His tingling sensation is too vague to be a symptom of Trigeminal Neuralgia or Neuropathy. He has only that one symptom he doesn't progress to pain in his eye let's say which goes on with numbness on the affected side of his face. This is a true description of some typical Trigeminal Neuralgia symptoms.

@johnbishop I suppose Trigeminal Neuropathy could be what I'm dealing with. Hard to be sure. And still no idea what may have caused it.
How would I go about finding such a place to seek help from? I work full-time, so it would need to be local to me.
