Thanks for the input, I searched both boards and read into a few post. Nothing that matches my issues. I searched TN before I made my post. But, from what I have read, I don't have TN. It is like my trigeminal is sending out fake symptoms. ie: Severe sinus pressure and pain while my sinuses are open, etc.

Hi @fdouglass Sorry I wasn’t more specific last night. I looked up the links for comments by @smithakar who posted about the same time as you yesterday and has some similar symptoms. I’ve had some similar pain issues as well that I mentioned in one of these posts. We both just considered trigeminal neuralgia as the cause, but have not been diagnosed with that. No answers for you, just others with similar frustrating issues so I’ll be interested to see if more people post about it. Sometimes I do wonder if sinuses could be involved because I have a lot of allergies, but I feel there is something neurological going on as usual.

I have the same symptoms sometimes and my neurologist thinks I'm crazy and should see an ENT. But my sinuses feel fine! There's pain shooting THRU them!
