Trigeminal neuralgia: What helps stop the pain?

I developed TN just about a year ago. Just suddenly had very bad pain in the jaw. I find brushing my teeth is definetly a trigger. I tried Gabapentin with no help, and three other recomended drugs, but Pregabolin has been very successful. I originally was on 375 mg three times a day, and I am now trying 50 mg once a day. Hope this may be some help for you

I forgot to mention, when I have pain in the jaw I put Ambesol (baby teething medication) on my jaw and teeth. Works like magic and I can eat.
