Chloe's left side of her face pain issue maybe what is called Trigeminal neuralgia. She has these attacks that seem to come out of nowhere. She has a chronic pain spot varies intensity daily located between her end of left eyebrow and top of her left ear. She has experienced dropping left eye, jaw locking on the left and feeling like she needs to throw up. The way she tries to get out of it if by biting on something. So we are either dealing with fear of having an attack or actually having one. This will be the discussion I have with her neurologist at Chloe's next appointment, Here is the link to this neuralgia!
This information was finally gotten because the neurologist gave Chloe medication that decreased swelling in nerve ending for treating peripheral nerve damage. We finally got a better description from Chloe as to her symptoms are and maybe why it got her to open her mouth and better control of her neck.
