Why is it that I can zip around town, do the chores and go to work but as soon as I sit down and, God forbid, ly down, I am suddenly in agony? What's that all about.

I've been at it for 8 years. I went through the shock of learning I have MS at 47. There's a young lady of 71 out there at it much longer who might agree with the following: There is no magic bullet for this. TN comes and goes. We all have to manage through the comes. I can speak to medication Tegretol only.
At lightning bolt times, increase the dose is worth the costs of side effects. More often, adjusting eating and brushing is the way to get through lesser pains.
That certainly sucks to hear for the younger folks. I think adjust game plan and expectations will make you happier. I just got through 2 annoying weeks. Nothing major. I'm happy to report I brushed normally this morning.

I've never had a prob with teeth brushing but eating today is literally a pain.
Tregretol didn't do a thing for me but I should give it a bash, seeing the doc on Thursday and my pain clinic doc thinks I need to see a ear nose en throat specialist as I have ear pain too.

Sounds like your employer does not deserve you. Don't worry, you'll get the TN under control. If you are getting the "electric shocks", Suggest you go direct to a neurologist. If unable to get an appointment, go to an ER. I did and got instant relief.
I take a 200mg every 6 hours. Some are taking more than that. I weigh 165 lbs.

Yes so we have the NHS and it took 6 months just to go to the pain clinic and what a waste of time that was. The doctor there seems to think I should see a ear nose en throat specialist and that appointment will take another 6 months no doubt and prescribed an unbelievable amount of Cocktail drugs. I am see my GP on Thursday to discuss it.
