I am new to this community. My PC thinks I might have trigeminal neuralgia. The right side of my face up to my temples is horribly painful. The pain is more of a burning than electrical as described. I have been waking up with horrible headaches in the front of my head. I have also had migraines off and on for a long time. I have been diagnosed with reaumatoid autoammune disease for 1 year and a half.

The pain I am experiencing now off and on is excruciating. Is there anyone else out there experiencing this?
