Hi @sdgoddard10, I'm sorry to hear about today's horrible attack of pain that you experienced. I moved your post to this existing discussion about trigeminal neuralgia
- Trigeminal neuralgia: What helps stop the pain?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/trigeminal-neuralgia-5/

I did this so you can connect with other members living with TN like @philipmdale @denny2788 @cathen48 @57r @lbo615 @jmb73 @boltz7555 and see what helps them.
