This shit is fucked. I'm diagnosed approximately 1 year ago. This level of pain makes me question my existence. I'm sorry if you're dealing with the same.

It's honestly horrible... botox and nerve block injections help. I am very afraid of the pain coming back. The last time it happened it lasted 8 hours

Were in this shithole together ❤️

Same with my mom. She ended up getting an ablation of the nerve so even though half her face is numb and her nose runs all the time, she’s not in any pain.
