Has anyone had a weird thing in your head? strong tingling smack in the middle of your forehead, pressure in the head and it feels like just that part of your forehead is high?

 is it all part of TN? or something else cus this morning i was sat here and it felt like a needle was smacked through the top of my head and it struck down the side of my face leaving my vision really weird.

 i was sent to addenbrookes last month and was told she could give me botox for the headaches as i get the TN ones that move around and she never flaming offered them, she just said i had atypical facial pain both sides and no treatment whatsoever so that was a complete waste of my time! this only started last saturday too.

    Don't do Botox. The problem is the trigeminal nerve. Is Alderbrookes a neurologist? My niece has had two rounds of Botox (40 injections each time) for her migraines. They did not work. I'm so sorry for your pain. I just can't imagine going through what you are experiencing. Is Alderbrooks a neurologist?
