Close Trigeminal Neuralgia

Blew my nose very hard many years ago and felt something tear. Suffered severe pain. Neurologist diagnosed it as TN. Tegretol turned me into a zombie so I just rode it out. Probably should have continued medication to see whether the drowsiness was reduced, but didn't. For several years it would come for a few days once or twice a year and the disappear. Lately it comes for several weeks and then has come back after a few months. Trying Timonil now - too soon to judge.
