Answer 2

Here is your answer buddy,

The diagnosis of autonomicneuropathy should be made by a neuromuscular specialist. Sjögren's syndrome can cause numbness or burning of the face, called “trigeminal neuralgia.” ... For example, up to 20% of patients with a “small-fiber”neuropathy may also have trigeminal neuropathy.

Hope this helps you.
