Occipital Neuralgia



Over the last six weeks I have awoken to pain in my scalp. It's not a bad pain, more annoying, but it's progressively getting worse over this period of time. I have started neck therapy again, but it'll take a few more visits before it'll start helping with the pain.

It's making me think if I do have Occipital Neuralgia on top of Trigeminal Neuralgia. I can eat my usual foods and it helps with the pain, but not like it normally does. Pain stays in my scalp until early in the afternoon, it becomes a headache where I can take something for it. Occasionally I get the TN stabbing pains in the eye and ear as well as the ache in my jaw, cheek, and neck.

It's killed my writing muse, but I'm determined to write 'A Wolf in Gotham' for NaNoWriMo and complete a novel about a person suffering from Trigeminal Neuralgia.
