Trigeminal Neuralgia and MS?

I'm really just looking for others locally who have a shared experience and are willing to talk with me. I just got diagnosed with MS, am 44 and the symptom that started the diagnosis is trigeminal neuralgia. Anyone else local have this? Its really painful and I'm struggling with how not to let it take over my life. Would love to speak with others who have this rare disease and have learned to live with it.
