Something old

So instead of munching chips as the AFC championship starts, I'm eating soup, courtesy of the Beast. Things haven't been quiet  lately, merely dull, but the last two have been right up there: as in take the meds, go to bed and roll with it until the Klonopin knocks you out. Make observations in the right hemisphere.

Things are definitely going as they did in the beginning, before meds.  After some prelims in the maxillary branch,  the serious pain arises in the temporal branch, as it almost always does for me. But instead of dropping to the Gasserian ganglion and spreading out, it rockets through the ganglion into the main trigeminal nerve. The pain sensations then shoot along this line every 5 to 10 seconds, with the duration increasing until they almost, but quite, blend together. This is typical and a lot of fun.

Of greater concern is that this is the second Mankoski level 7 to 8 episode in a row. Until now, the nasty thing has just been playing with me,
