Hey everyone, I'm 27 and just got diagnosed with TN this weekend after about 2 years of face pain that was misdiagnosed as chronic sinus infections. Thankfully my doctor ruled out MS. It's a relief in one aspect because now I know what's wrong, but I'm also freaking out a bit. It's a little disconcerting to know I'm a lot younger than most people who have this. I'm really encouraged by people's posts of how the medications have worked for them well and really nervous of the posts that say it doesn't. But anyway, I just wanted to reach out and say hi.
