    Trigeminal Neuralgia

     
    My grandma 80+yrs old, has suffered for 10years with a terrible face pain.
    She says it feels like there is a knife stabbing in the side of her eye/face and that whole side of her face feels like it is burning. She has been going through such a terrible time... she is depressed and miserable, and not to mention in constant pain.

    At this age, what can we look into doing to help her with this?

    I feel desperate for her and would love to help her get some relief or even
    GET RID of this for her!

    Thank you to all who respond...

    Which brand and form of B 12 should I use?   hunghung   15 y  4,742  C

    Which brand and form of B 12 should I use?

     
    I have a neurological condition (see below if you want the details). A public hospital doctor prescribed a monthly intramuscularly injection of 1000mcg cyanocobalamin B 12. I have taken 4 injections in 4 months with no effect.

    I believe B 12 would really help, but the dosage I am receiving just isn't enough and now I want to take B 12 on my own account. Can someone tell which brand and which form of B 12 I should take?

    For your reference I came cross two products:

    1. B-12 Methylcobalamin 1000mcg Sublingual (by Natural Factors), 90 tablets for $10 (http://www.vitaminlife.com/product-exec/product_id/40363/nm/B-12+Methylcobalamin+1000mcg+Sublingual). It claims to be more potent than injection. Could this be true?

    2. Vitamin B 12 Patch (8 Patches) for $24 (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002GUFCAU/ref=asc_df_B002GUFCAU959873?smid=A2FQNJZGIT5DKQ&tag=dealtmp5017-20&linkCode=asn&creative=380341&creativeASIN=B002GUFCAU).

    I appreciate other ideas that may help my condition.

    [My condition: Early this year, I woke up and found the feeling, but not appearance, of facial imbalance, with the left feeling down and the right feeling up. When I closed my eyes, the left side was dark while the right side was "bright". I believe my nerve was damaged after using a screwdriver with my right hand a lot for several days (first pain in my right shoulder and later the facial nerve was also affected), although the doctors I saw wouldn't buy this. To make the story short, I tried lots of things and the condition has much improved, about 70% I would say.]
