I actually have something they call a cavernous hemangioma on my optical nerve...which is dr terms for a encapsulated blood tumor that is not known to be cancerous...as best diagnosed with out going into my eye
and attempting removal....migraine and visual aura migraines, facial twitching optical neuritis is exactly what I was diagnosed with.
As well as complex Migraines...

Hi Sam 👋. I would let your doctor know. Are you having any visual disturbances?. It could be optic neuritis. I've had it many times before. Please check with your doctor. 🤗

MSF 27 MS and Trigeminal neuralgia (TN)
I hope this helps.
What Causes Trigeminal Neuralgia?
The pain associated with trigeminal neuralgia represents an irritation of the nerve. The cause of the pain usually is due to contact between a healthy artery or vein and the trigeminal nerve at the base of the brain. This places pressure on the nerve as it enters the brain and causes the nerve to misfire.
Other causes of trigeminal neuralgia include pressure of a tumor on the nerve or multiple sclerosis, which damages the myelin sheaths that insulate and help conduct electrical impulses across nerve cells. Development of trigeminal neuralgia in a young adult suggests the possibility of multiple sclerosis.
Secondary Symptomatic Trigeminal Neuralgia (STN): Pain resulting from multiple sclerosis.
The pain is often described as an excruciating sensation, similar to an electric shock. The attacks can be so severe that you are unable to do anything during them, and the pain can sometimes bring you to your knees.
Trigeminal neuralgia usually only affects one side of your face. In rare cases it can affect both sides, although not at the same time. The pain can be in the teeth, the lower jaw, upper jaw, cheek and, less commonly, in the forehead or the eye.
You may feel aware of an impending attack of pain, though these usually come unexpectedly.
After the main, severe pain has subsided, you may experience a slight ache or burning feeling. There may also be a constant throbbing, aching or burning sensation between attacks.
You may have episodes of pain lasting regularly for days, weeks or months at a time. It is possible for the pain to then disappear completely and not recur for several months or years (a period known as “remission”). However, in severe cases, attacks may occur hundreds of times a day, and there may be no periods of remission.
Symptom triggers
Attacks of trigeminal neuralgia can be triggered by certain actions or movements, such as:
• talking
• smiling
• chewing
• brushing your teeth
• washing your face
• a light touch
• shaving or putting on make-up
• swallowing
• kissing
• a cool breeze or air conditioning
• head movements
• vibrations, such as walking or a car journey
However, pain can occur spontaneously with no triggers whatsoever.
Anticonvulsant medications, which slow down the nerve’s conduction of pain signals, are usually the first treatment option.
These include:
Tegretol, Trileptal, Carbatrol, Dilantin, Lamictal, Keppra, Topamax, Neurontin, Klonopin and Lyrica

I have the eye pain and blurred vision in my right eye with the pins and needles in my head as well. My face will twitch and feel as if someone is pulling my face tight. I don't know what that is but it usually happens at night

I have the pains and blurred vision In my left eye. It will feel like someone is playing ping pong with my eye ball. Not pleasant. And the headaches and migraine can last for ages. Even I can't handle the heat I use a heat pack on my left side of head
