Natural Trigeminal Neuralgia Treatment

Thank you so very much for posting your experience with TN and taking L-lysine. I've been suffering for a week with horrible, debilitating TN pain in my right cheek and into my mandible under my wisdom tooth. After I read your post, I realized I was having a lot of symptoms that I get with cold sores but without any actual cold sores present. I already had a bottle of L-lysine on hand in case I get a cold sore so I immediately took some and within an hour, I kid you not, ALL my symptoms are starting to dissipate rapidly. All good blessings to you, tysm!

L-lysine... yes! I was suffering so much with horribly severe, shocking, debilitating pain in my right cheek and under my lower right wisdom tooth, and had all the symptoms I get with a cold sore but with no actual cold sore present. I didn't recognize the other symptoms readily because the pain was so very severe. Within an hour of taking a material dose of l-lysine, I have so much relief I could cry. I need to reevaluate my diet for lysine to arginine ratio and stay aware of symptoms because, looking back, I see there was a lead-up to the pain becoming overwhelming. Once again, EC has restored my will to live! Thank you so much for this forum and thanks to all members who take time out to help others by posting their experiences. I am so grateful! <333

I experienced nerve pain in my face that was excruciatingly painful and since my mom has had trigeminal neuralgia I knew I had all of the symptoms. I decided not to take medication and to explore natural options and lots of prayer. One day I started to get a cold sore on my lip as I have gotten them all of my life so I took a very high dose of the amino acid l-lysine. My pain completely went away after a few days. My doctor said that it's possible that the herpes simplex virus could have attacked my nerves. Now I take 1 500mg capsule of l-lysine every day and praise the Lord I am still pain free after several months. I hope and pray that this will help others because I know how terrible it is. You can get L-lysine from any vitamin store. They cost around $5.00 for 250 capsules (don't get the pills cause they're hard to swallow). May God bless you!
