Hi Jan,

 

It's good to see you, but I'm sorry that it's because you are having pain.  If the pain is not related to dental problems, could it still be TMJ problems in your jaw?  If not TMJ, then the next thought is trigeminal neuralgia which is something Vicki experiences.  It can be excruciating but something which your neurologist can hopefully help with.  Please let us know if it gets any better.

 

Lisa
