Trigeminal Neuralgia 2016 3 & 4

We'll  call this a doubleheader, with no pun intended.

Number 3 was Monday night. It was slow gaining traction, then got lively, with some 7+ zaps thrown in for entertainment. This and the previous one had one thing in common: I'm pretty certain eating was the trigger in both cases. It backed down with only a little help from Clonazepam, but I did notice one thing. I had recovered enough to try some bedtime reading before the drug kicked in. That was no good. Granted, my choice of reading matter wasn't great. Histories written in the 19th century are heavy going at the best of times. Under the twin influences of Special K and TN, the words just clumped together and fell off the page. Times for some lighter reading.

Number 4 began at work. Because I don't like doing Clonazepam at work, this one dragged on for around three hours, subsiding once and coming back. It's a tossup whether to rate this as one breakthrough or two. Still going on.
