I have been diagnosed with an atypical neuralgia and have taken lots of pain-killers and other stuff that have caused me to have tongue tardive dyskinesia. Need S.O.S.
Heard that botox injenctions could help.
Where? by who?

Hi,

I am not sure about botox but other drugs like benzodiazepines and dopamine agonists work well in tardive dyskinesia. Please discuss these options with your treating doctor.
For atypical neuralgia recent studies have shown that a drug known as milnacipran (antidepressant) has a beneficial effect.
