it's time for another update on Charlie's Health Issues No One Probably Cares About Anymore but Charlie Can't Really Talk to his Family About This so You Guys Will Have to Do
i had to get an MRI of my brain done last week and we looked at it today good news: it didn't show any tumor, cysts, or blood vessels touching my trigeminal nerve bad news: it didn't show any tumor, cysts, or blood vessels touching my trigeminal nerve which means the almost 5 years of pain i've been experiencing have literally no cause !!! there's nothing causing the nerve pain and numbness and muscle spasms and muscle tightness i experience on the left side of my face and have for like 5 yrs now. in fact the numbness has been spreading recently. i've not been sleeping or eating like i should either. i'm really tired !!!!
all i can do is go to a neurologist but i leave for school on thursday to move in on saturday to start on monday o and no one in like a 150 mi radius from school takes my insurance so :)))) and even then i've been made aware that most likely the only thing that can be done for me is some sort of painkiller that i'll have to take for the rest of my life since there's nothing causing this problem and that means there's no way to fix it !!! if medication doesn't work, they'll have to literally destroy the nerve. which will make the entire side of my face numb but there'll be no more pain
tbh i haven't wanted to die this much in a while now and i really don't want to be alive anymore if i'm gonna feel like this forever and there's no way to fix it

I'm really sorry to hear all of this I hope the medications at least will work for you. I guess not being able to feel anything is better than pain but at the same time that would probably be annoying at first and take some getting used to

I guess not being able to feel anything is better than pain but at the same time that would probably be annoying at first and take some getting used to the issue now is idk when i can see a neurologist bc i go to school clear across the state. it's like 6 1/2 hours away. and no one takes my insurance. so i guess i'll just suffer until winter break ??? if i live that long tbh ????
