			<description><![CDATA[I just called my neuro for the same thing.  I was doing great- started <a href="http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Tegretol" onclick="treatmentHotLink('http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Tegretol')" class="treatmentlink" title="Learn more about Tegretol">tegretol</a> in January.  I was actually going to discuss coming off of it- b/c things were going so well.  5 days ago BAM! I am so upset.  I just called the office- waiting for a call back.

			<description><![CDATA[Did you spend a lot of time outside (and it was windy)? Or maybe you touched/brushed your face? I don't understand it myself. Once I had something actually HIT my face HARD an was in pain, but it went away after an hour. Another time I just scratched my chin and it kept hurting for hours.

			<description><![CDATA[I think in general we build up a resistance to whatever med we take.  I started on <a href="http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Tegretol" onclick="treatmentHotLink('http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Tegretol')" class="treatmentlink" title="Learn more about Tegretol">Tegretol</a>, switched to <a href="http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Neurontin" onclick="treatmentHotLink('http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Neurontin')" class="treatmentlink" title="Learn more about Neurontin">neurontin</a> and now am on a combination of the two (I like to call it my 'cocktail' ;)  and this is all w/in less than a year, so who know what's next???]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I get the whammies too.  I call them breakthrough attacks and take <a href="http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Hydrocodone" onclick="treatmentHotLink('http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Hydrocodone')" class="treatmentlink" title="Learn more about Hydrocodone">hydrocodone</a> with ibuprophen in it till the pain becomes somewhat bearable (I have an extremely high pain tolerance) or I knock myself out.  In the morning the pain is almost always gone.  Doesn't mean it won't come back that evening....]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sunflur ... Since I wrote this I have had 2 more 'breakthrough' attacks. They were painful but very short in length. None of these make any sense so I guess they just happen.  
 If they continue I will call my neuro and see what he has to offer on the subject. 
 Peace and love to you, Marti]]></description>

Once I had the diagnosis, <a href="http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Neurontin" onclick="treatmentHotLink('http://dailystrength.org/treatments/Neurontin')" class="treatmentlink" title="Learn more about Neurontin">Neurontin</a> helped in a relatively short time.
