TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA

[janet keys]

I have had Type 1 diabetes for 34 years. For the last three years I have had Trigeminal Neuralgia. Has anybody else in the diabetic community suffered with this awful condition. When it is at its worst, I cannot eat or drink. I have to use a straw to drink cold tea, coffee. Trigeminal Neuralgia is quite a rare condition and I am wondering if the professionals have considered whether it might be connected to diabetes.

Am t2 and have suffered this over the past 25 years on and off. It's the worst pain ever.
Neither Dr's or dentist will give me anything, they just say take paracetamol
