Darn, I just wrote you a long paragraph on what I’ve done to get rid of it but it just went away. So I’m going to try this again. I have successfully gotten rid of my flareups without using medication. What usually brings it on for me is when I’ve been stressed for a while over something big. The tension in my neck messes with one of my three vertebrae‘s either C1, C2, or C3. So I try to destress and relax if I can’t get to a doctor right away, but what always works for me is working with a special type of chiropractor not just any chiropractor. They have to be an Upper Cervical Spine, Chiropractor, who’s had the extra schooling to learn a lot more about the neck. They believe most things start in the neck, but also can adjust your entire back if necessary. I would ask if they’ve worked with TN before. They are gentle. They don’t do any quick movements to adjust you like other chiropractors. They just usually use a gentle vibration gun and other gentle techniques. After about 2 or 3 visits I’m good! Good Luck to you!
There are several treatment options available for managing trigeminal neuralgia (TN) in MS. It's important to work closely with your neurologist to find the right treatment approach that doesn't interfere with your MS management.
Common medications prescribed for TN include
• Carbamazepine (Tegretol)
• Gabapentin Show Full Answer
I take Vimpat and Carbamazapine daily.
Sorry, I don't have that. I hope you'll find answers to find what will help you feel more comfortable . Review the MS team items above with your Neurologist. Hugs!
