Does anyone have trigeminal neuralgia, pain on one side of the face. Some people get it that have MS. I had this for about a month and it is driving me nuts. The pain can knock you to the floor. I take baclofen which is a muscle relaxant. It works a little but makes me loopy.

Hi there. Yes, I had the pain on my left side and jaw. I didn't know what it was called. I took flexerill which I think may be the same as baclofen. It does make you loopy for sure. To help I tried icing and a heat pad which helped, and a glass of wine took the edge off too.

Hope you feel better.
