Trigeminal neuralgia -- "The Suicide Disease"

I am going to take a moment to share with you a bit about this disease, the impact, and a good news story.

 

Here is a link to those who have never heard of it. -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_neuralgia

Aleve

 I have a prescription for naproxen, but since Aleve can now be sold in Canada I decided to pick some up to have some more around the house in case I need it instead of having to run to the pharmacy if I run out.  I also had a $5 off coupon (and a bottle is under $6 - good deal!).

 

I had trouble getting it though.  At one place it was sold out (when it was new here).  At Walmart they keep it locked up when the pharmacist isn't there.  I finally got some at a grocery store where it wasn't locked up.

What vitamins, supplements and OTC medications do you regularly take?

 I decided to ask this question after not being able to buy some vitamin D at a major store because it was all sold out in the larger doses.  I'm guessing this is due to the studies suggesting vitamin D might help prevent the flu or lessen its symptoms.
