Yes. But I can't remember when they started. I think that is from irritation to the tri-geminal nerve.  I still get it.

Thanks for the reply. Did you ever mention it to your consultant?

Louise,
You should definitely check with your surgeons.  Perhaps they can refer you to a pain specialist, or have some other suggestion.  You never know until you check with your doctors.

Hi Rich

Yes, I've just had an mri to monitor a cyst that's appeared under my residual tumour. I don't know if that could be causing the headaches. My consultant said she will phone me with the results, so I'll mention it to her then.

Thanks for the reply.
