Hi everyone,

I am new to this board and I have had some troubling symptoms and am wondering if any of you could shed some light on the situation.

About a month ago I experienced my first episode of trigeminal neuralgia. Had a few bouts and lasted two days. Just last weekend I had it again, several more times than last time. Then about 24 hours later I started to experience tingling/pins and needles on one side (opposite side to the neuralgia). Over the week I have experienced intermittent tingling, pains like I've been stung by a bee on my fingers and toes and general relaxed/tired feeling in the arms and legs. I saw my gp, and then the neurologist who both did a thorough exam and could not find any problems. I also had an MRI and that was clear. I am awaiting blood test results. I had a thought it could be shingles but the rash I have is only right in the centre of my chest. I am 33 years old.

Do you think I have anything to worry about?
Thanks in advance.

Stella,

Google ; dr windman atlas - you will find trigeminal neuralgia is a symptom. Also a misaligned atlas can cause sensation problems elsewhere in the body. Its important that you are not given loads of unnecessary stuff to read, filling your head but this is relevant I cant post her full article or link because of copyright.

Hope it help as trigeminal is classed the worst type of pain anyone can suffer. I could also point you in the direction of chiropractic board, in treatments section, there is a post on there regarding trigeminal and fibromyalgia and a post by Dania that gives a detailed diagram of the spine and how it affects the body, that is also good good,

found an interesting overview of TN stella - any clarification re what subtype you could be dealing with? ie do you have an msdx and therefore this would be likely the ms-associated subtype?

nothing on lyme disease here by the way - lyme did crop up when i was scouting about earlier on google scholar though, hence the mention above

Stella,

Yes me lymes could be a contender, if you are in a high risk area, or a Vet and if you have a target style bite mark, but it wont cause trigeminal neuralgia. ok there is no proof that it does ok
