I've suffered with TN on/ off for years......... I can't describe in words how painful it is........ Is it related to lupus? I'm newly diagnosed with lupus

Oh, so sorry for you. I have heard that TN is excruciatingly painful. I hope that you will be given appropriate help and support. Sending you good wishes.

Hi mealfredo

TN is no fun as can be very painful. You need to see your GP who can prescribe painkillers that are good for nerve pain like Amitriptyline which will aid sleep, Gabapentin or Pregabalin. All the best .
