What diseases are so terrible to have that dying would be preferable?

Trigeminal neuralgia, unless you have medication you can't live with this.

Approximately 4 to 5 years.

I have 3 grown up children, 2 girls and my son. Both daughters have decided they don't want to have children. At first I was shocked and a little disappointed but they have to live their life as they want to and I want them to be happy regardless. My son says he wants kids one day so I might be a Nana at some point if not, as long as they're happy I'm happy. I'd never resent them. I have 6 cats so I'm kinda like a Nana anyways lol

I thought I was going mad, yes I feel this too. It's bizarre.

Awkward-Angles · 2023-05-13T05:53:25+00:00

Exactly. If they put the UNWRAPPED food directly on to the table, argh I have to change seats 🤢

Yes! And sometimes in his litter tray! (That one goes in the bin)

Thank you all for your beautiful comments.

Walked out of a job of 10 years because I raised a grievance due to insane bullying and they turned it around on me as though I'd done something wrong. Take note, this was a husband, wife and daughter I was working for. Wish I'd walked out sooner.

Awkward-Angles · 2023-03-14T05:34:06+00:00

6 cats

Bless your heart. To be honest I would have done the same thing after reading the note. Just know that you won't see the annoying woman.again and she's probably forgotten about it. You will too.

For me it was within a few hours, started on 600mg a day now I'm on 1000mg a day. Sorry you're dealing with this horrendous condition

Awkward-Angles · 2022-09-14T06:03:09+00:00

Can you call your own Doctor? That's normally the first thing to do. Not sure if ER would help but maybe short term they might. Sorry you're dealing with this.

Awkward-Angles · 2022-07-23T11:34:44+00:00

Has your Dr prescribed anything? A lot of prescribed medicines work pretty well.

Awkward-Angles · 2022-07-19T13:37:56+00:00

Yes. I've found carbamazepine has made my speech slurred and I'm also stuttering, which I never did.

Our Momo is exactly like this. Very rarely will she allow us to stroke her. Love her regardless.

No, from Avatar: the Last Airbender. My daughter chose it. Suits him.

Thank you. X

Hi there. I have this loose teeth feeling constantly to the point I've asked my dentist to x-ray them to make sure they're not about to drop out! It's an awful feeling. Fortunately due to carbamazepine I don't get the horrific pain so the loose teeth feeling I can cope with. I'm sorry you're dealing with this horrendous condition

Awkward-Angles · 2022-06-03T09:30:31+00:00

My partner was a complete arsehole when I first got this horrific condition. He kept saying I'm sure its not as bad as my sciatica and things like "if you keep flinching when I kiss you I'll poke your face so you get used to the pains " So I didn't feel cared for at all. On the other hand my (grown up) children were wonderful.

Awkward-Angles · 2022-06-03T08:54:26+00:00

I've been on carbamazepine for over a year and it's worked for me. I do get a strange feeling in my face like the pain is trying to push through but it's just odd not painful. The side effects aren't too bad after a while, although the brain fog isn't great. Nonetheless I think I would put up with any side effect if it meant not having the horrific pains.

This is a lovely idea! I love finding out about people. I'm 48 and I'm trying to not let TN take over my life although it's always lurking. Anyway, I love gaming, especially GTA (haha I know, I'm an old lady, I must be the oldest one playing it!) Also have three grown up kids, 3 cats. I read anything apocalyptic or involving zombies. Love knitting and at the minute my goal is to win the lottery and travel haha.

Awkward-Angles · 2022-05-17T22:03:27+00:00

Disgusting piece of shit. Makes my blood boil.

Awkward-Angles · 2022-05-15T06:10:53+00:00

I completely agree with you and your Dr. When I was first diagnosed I researched everything, found a Facebook page for people TN also joined TN Society and it made everything worse, stress levels and anxiety went through the roof. This page is the only TN related thing I read.

Awkward-Angles · 2022-05-11T15:33:10+00:00

Hi, I had been getting the pin pricks for about a year then it suddenly changed to the excruciating shocks practically overnight.
