I have had a wonderful 3 months of pain free days and nights. all good things must end right?
Well, the TN is back, with a slightly different trigger. Yawning! So, I thought maybe it was a jaw thing? But I have actually perfected the art of yawning with my mouth closed (try it, it can be done!)- so its not connected to mouth opening or jaw. Something happens on the roof of my mouth and behind my nose when I yawn that sets of a little burst of TN pain up by my right eye. Just wanted to see if I am the only weird one with this trigger:) Jill Posted on 04/26/08, 07:04 pm |

i haven't had that trigger.
I have so many other triggers..My Dentist and My PT probably think i'm crazy! I'm always saying don't touch this don't touch that.It's so hard to let anyone look in my mouth or touch my face.

Omg I have had a weekend of yawning. It hurts the jaw and the side of my face and my teeth. The worst part is that i couldnt stop yawning. I am going to try your idea of yawning with my mouth closed. Thanks for the suggestion.
