Tired! Mood
Saturday, October 31, 2009 | A General Update story

Well, as predicted, not much sleep through almost constant pain in the jaw :(   Spent a truely horrible night, getting up every hour and walking about a bit (tip gained on this site - thanks guys!) to 'fool' the TN enough for a rest until the next bout.

 

Althought the 'lightning' attacks seem better on Amitriptyline, it doesn't seem to have much effect on the constant pains in jaw/under eye/forehead... today it felt like my jaw was in constant 'spasm' (like you get sometimes if you try to stop a yawn).  The only thing that seems to ease it is to stretch my neck looking up at the ceiling... which looks kinda weird in the supermarket, and can't be done whilst driving!

 

Am continuing with 25mg, as I'm happy to say that I've not noticed any side effects at all.
