Has anyone out there ever had any experience with TN along with your MS? My husband has both and he has just started on LDN, but the TN is really painful...wondering whether to continue in hopes it will eventually help with the pain. It would be nice to know someone who has experienced this. Started taking the DLP too in hopes it will help with pain. thanks " Hi there a. Can you describe just what TN symptoms that your husband has. I get some really strange painful episodes that I attribute to some sort of trigeminal nerve thing. Every so often I get a painful sensation down the right side of my face that goes from around the lower part of the nose to the lips. I am experiencing it right now and it is just painful to touch that area of my face. Hard to even wash my face. This normally lasts for about a month or so and then fades away. I have learned to live with these episodes and no, the LDN does nothing for that, that I know of. This nerve pain has actually started after I was taking the LDN and I'm assuming that it's just a normal part of MS? I hope that your husbands pain eases with time.
