On my way to bed last night, lying down, getting comfortable....I got slapped with a jolt of electricity across my cheek and jaw. The pain started inside my ear. I got tangled in the blankets trying to fling them off the bed, Binky (the pug) jumped down and hid, and I half stumbled, half fell towards the bathroom, trying not to scream, because it was late, and I didn't want to wake Mom up. My cheek, when I could finally touch it, was ice cold, but there's a burning sensation that hasn't stopped. I only thought I was in pain with the burning sensation I've been having in my ear and down my jaw. I could at least deal with that. If what hit me last night was what Mom put up with for three years, I am just....I have trigeminal neuralgia. Last night, it had me. :(
