ARGH!@#$%^*()
I am having yet another trigeminal nerve attack.
This pain is so intense feels like I got shot in the base of the skull.
I have had problems with my neck for over 30 yrs and I can't take this kind of pain anymore.
I have tried ice/ heat/ magnets/ infared/ pillows that are soft/ firm.
Even pain meds don't put a dent it this pain.
I have so much to do today and I don't know how I am going to funtion like this.
the only thing that I have not done for this attack is fire up a small bowl of herb.
I dont like the way that stuff makes me feel, but it is the one thing that might help calm down that trigeminal nerve.
So looking forward to getting back home to herbalize and see if it helps.
I want a new neck!!!!!!

Have you tried an inversion table? Or even a plank with one side set up on a couple of bricks?
Make gravity your friend.
The Only thing I have found that Calmed it fairly Quickly was 2 Ibuprophen {Which I can NO Longer take}, A Cool Cloth on that side of my Face...and Complete Darkness...

Sorry you're hurting - more - worse than usual. Herbalize away - whatever works for you!
(Y'know, I really do wish that the Igors Terry Pratchett writes about were real. I could use new knees.)
I was tested for vita d and the dr said that I was the lowest score that he had seen. I have been taking extra ever since as well as sublingual vita b. I also take calcium and magnesium.
Dakota I get such pain in my head and face and deep inside me ear when I get those trigem attacks, my head it so tight. Then my C-1 and C-2 in my neck get spased up and I am in hella pain until I can be put in traction, then adjusted by my chiro. I see him tomorrow I can't wait.
