Hi, I Have Developed Trigeminal Neuralgia This Year, Have Went

Hi, I have developed Trigeminal Neuralgia this year, have went through tow root canals on one tooth before having it pulled, and was still in pain. My dentist sent me to a nerve specialist who put me on gabapentin and Ibuprofen 600 mg three times a day. It did nothing for me except blow my stomach out.
then I went to another specialist and he put me on Metoclopramide 10 mg. after 5 days I got sick and passed out, so stopped taking it. The doctor wanted me to start taking Lerida, which I did not start taking, now Im, looking for new meds to help me.
a friend who has my illness who just went through
gaba knife surgery, it took 4 months for it to help her but she was really in a lot of pain. these were the meds she was taking
.baclofen for pain and Trileptal for the nerve damage , I am seeing a n.ew doctor this week and going to try
accupunsure.

I thank you for any help you can give me.

Joyce
