Can I have trigeminal neuralgia or neoropathy and body paresthesia?

@tinatoren I’m so sorry you’re going through all of this.
I can relate to the neck, head pain connection. I have occipital neuralgia. My skull and neck are not aligned properly and it gives me lots of pain in my head. The nerves under the scalp are inflamed and cause numbness and pain all around the face. For me, my scalp is sore, my face feels numb down my nose to my lips, jaw pain…
The tingling you mentioned is also there occasionally.
I’m not a doctor. It sounds like you are having some neurological issues and need to find a neurologist who has the skill and compassion to help you!
“Begging for help” sounds like you have to go through a GP first. I’ve seen comments like that before.
I wish you all the best.
Susan

Thanks for replying! I thought the trigeminal nerves ver inside the skull and could not be affected by cervical spine miss alignment. I've been abusing my neck for years both with half sitting in bed because of reflux and hiatal hernia. Also sitting with my head forward beading and crafting plus moving this fall with packing and lifting boxes. My back is in bad shape but I was told that the facial nerves are inside the skull and can only be affected by neurological diseases. Im so afraid I got nerve damage from Nexium and Prilosec since I ate a high dose before this happened. Now my esophagus and stomach have started to hurt so much I can't function but I'm so afraid of going back on acid blockers incase the caused the neuropathy! I don't know what to do!
