I had Trigeminal Neuralgia three years ago before i was told i had Diabetes,for the people who don't know about this its very painful it affects three nerves from the brain to above the eye and to top and bottom of the jaw when it starts it feels like terrible tooth ache all the time some people have been known to do away with themselves when it attacks.My doctor after having dental work and having teeth pulled out sent me to see a doc up the hospital and they finally told me it was T.Neuralgia i was put on Amitriptyline as this works on the nerves and no more pain,but last week it came back so i took a higher amount of the Amitriptyline but no good.I was wondering if Diabetes can make this worse? and does any one else suffer with it? and what do you take for it? shan x
