Trigeminal neuralgic pain

My mother suffers from intermittent shooting pain due to a hypersensitive trigeminal nerve. She gargles using chlorhexidine mouthwash and it seems to greatly alleviate her pain. Any good explanation why it is effective in alleviating the nerve pain?

Waking up with one side of head numbness

Today i woke up after a small sleep. I was just chilling then suddenly i get the strangest strongest feeling of numbness and heaviness in left side of my head top area. I could feel my left side of brain. I was so scared. I sat upwards while panicking and i felt tingling running down to my left thumb from my left elbow. There was a bright red spot on my left forearm. The numbness went away in few secs to a minute since i sat upwards. I was horrified. The tingling also went away in a minute and the red spot went away too however that area is still a little tender. I also have had this before a few months ago. Not like this. It was just a spot that felt like it burst in left top side of my head. That also happened when i woke up. I sat upwards panicking what to do. I also have Brugada Syndrome, Obsessive Compulsion Disorder. I on Concor-Cor 2.5mg for Brugada Syndrome. MRI was taken few weeks after the first sensation months ago. Report said Sinusitis on left side.

Tired every day, even after sleeping 8hr

Hi, i went to a GP, ordered blood tests, was vitamin d deficit, but now no deficiency after 40 days of meds. He told me i am just stressed which i don't think i am. I sleep from 12:00 PM to 9:00 AM sometimes 10, and even then i feel horrible. Its like there is a rubber band tightening my head, and i feel i am too tired to do anything, like understand games i am playing, study for more than 1.5 hr, and for comparison i used to pull all nighters 8 hrs straight, no breaks, for my boards and scored pretty good as well. I don't have a comparison chart as to if what i am feeling is severe or mild tiredness, i just don't feel good and that something is wrong and i don't know why. Please tell me if i should go in person to a neurologist clinic and that can he help me? Any useful suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thankyou.
