For about a year now, I’ve been suffering from severe pain on the right side of my face. I’ve consulted multiple specialists including my GP, ophthalmologist, endodontist, audiologist, ENT, neurologist, and neurosurgeon, but no one can diagnose the issue. Common diagnoses are sinus infections or Trigeminal Neuralgia, but my right ear is badly affected, which is not typical for Trigeminal Neuralgia. Today, everything from my jaw to my eye and cheekbone hurts with pulsating pain. I’ve completed five courses of antibiotics this fall and have been on two different steroids. The pain comes and goes but is affecting my daily activities. What other painkillers or types of doctors should I consider? The pain is unbearable.
