Well, what do you know, I suffer occasionally from the same thing. Never knew it had a name. Mine's in the lower left jaw behind the jaw "joint". Have it several times a year. An ice pick of the most excruciating pain turning on and off for a few minutes. Few times a year. If I don't get enough sleep it occurs. Not a nice experience at all. Wayback, you and I have it at the same frequency. And Jason, sorry to hear that you have this. Most unpleasant. --- wayback71 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
