Question: Woke up May 27 the with a headache and droopy/ swollen eye L side. Waited a week to go in though it was allergy because the pollen was high in our area. When I went in eye pain temple pain and top of the head felt sunburnt only on L side diagnosis gain cell arteritis given prednisone but when labs came back seg rates were normal so slowly decreased prednisone and given anti viral for 7 days (tested for lymes and strep..both normal) the only test that were just a little off were WBC just a tad low and LYMPH just a tad high but they said normal because just slightly off... they thought maybe shingles with no rash.... No or less tearing on L eye also.....and waited for ins to clear CT scan of the head. Started getting ear/ throat pain L side. CT was taken fri 16 the made appt to get results mon 19 .....Sunday 18 the woke up facial numbness on L side of face. Headache was almost gone when face was numb felt like I had a dental procedure my face moved but felt numb.... but numbness decreased and headache increased about 24 hrs...Sunday when face was numb I went into ER just in case of stroke sent to Marshfield St XXXXXXX neuro dr diagnosed facial pain and sent me home....then he called the next morning and wanted a MRI check for caroid artery disection and MRI of head got them Tue and both normal told to take a baby ASA and given amatripaline 10 mg. I also discussed having a dental procedure in February ( crown put on) and had trouble opening up my mouth wide for about 3 weeks after because of tightness in the back of my mouth / jaw.... he stated that is not the problem....I also went to my optometrist Friday XXXXXXX 9 th had him take a look at my eye( my eye is healthy) but he did give me a steroid drop for 1 week to see if it would help for eye pain but no luck.
My pain is about 2-3 all the time but sometimes gets to a 8-9 and lasts from 4-8 hrish. Last nigh I had the pain so I found some hydrocodone and muscle relaxer and took them instead of the ASA and amatripaline
I don't know if it help but I did sleep and woke up with the normal headache of a 2/3. I do have a recheck with my primary Tuesday and am going to ask about Physical Therapy for jaw pain
I just want this headache/ temple/ jaw pain to go away

I haven't seen the report of the MRI I was just told it was normal but shouldn't the MRI show MS and what other tests is for MS. Also what kind of Dr should I go to check for trigeminal neuralgia the neurologist just told me I have facial pain take a aspirin and amitriptiline. I have an appt with my primary tomorrow, but just asking for a second opinion .
