A prescription Drug for Neuralgia used greatly these days is AMITRIPTYLINE which I believe was used for Depression originally ... but was accidentally found to relieve Nerve Pain .. maybe your Doctor would give you a trial ..

Years ago

I had a serious trapped nerve in my neck / head for almost 2 years ... tried everything

A neurologist suggested AMITRIPTYLINE .. .... Gone !
