Is there any dietary angle to trigeminal neuralgia?

I want him to talk to the neurologist about indomethacin, intranasal lidocaine, and a TENS unit. I found a clinical trial that showed that people with trigeminal neuralgia benefited from using a TENS unit. I also found one case report of a patient with trigeminal neuralgia who got complete, long-term relief after getting one unintentionally large zap from a TENS unit.
