Thanks for asking. Since last October, I have lost 35 pounds and the trigeminal neuralgia has diminished with the weight. I am completly off my medication now and pain free (so thankful). I did have a sinus infection a few weeks ago and I had a slight flare up with the trigeminal nerve but nothing serious.
I always thought it was the weight but now I wonder if it is sinus related. My sinusus were terrible my whole pregnancy. My Dr. said she wasn't aware of that being a cause but the sinusus do cross the trigeminal nerve.
Really I don't think I will ever figure out what caused it but I'm just beyond thankful it gone. My husband and I are tyring for another baby now and I just pray it doesn't come back.
