Long story short. I have been having major burning, stabbing, pins and needles, pressure type pain and sensations after having some dental work done on my front tooth. It has been going on for about 6 months. I have visited many dentist and endontists. The last endo said I needed to see a neurologist. I was wondering if anyone has ever had nerve problems of the face or mouth that has caused them to visit a neuro. What should I expect? I am a nervous wreck about my appt. I just want this pain to end. I feel for all of you on this board and around the world that suffer from nerve pain. My grandparents both suffer from it and I don't know how they do it. Anyone that suffers from chronic pain day in and day out and can still function are my heros. Bless all of you and I would be interested in hearing any feed back.
Thanks,

:eek: Dear S.G.
I have Neuropathy and I suffer at times from pain after eating anything hot or cold, like ice cream. It can take up to 3 hours for the pain in my teeth to go away after eating ice cream. I know some people with say their teeth are sensitive to cold too, but this is different and I will argue all day over the difference. Let us know what the neuro says. I tell mine constently about the pain in my teeth. I have also learned that you have to continue telling them about the different pain you have along with the past pains or else they ASSUME the old pains have gone away. That is not a good lesson to learn.
Sincerely,
