Terilee says the trigger-point injections were lidocain and something else, but she can't remember what. Doing what you need to get good sleep (painkillers or whatever) is also important; she mentioned that when I was asking her about treatment, but I didn't get it down.
This seems to be a pretty good description of it. I found other descriptions on the web which claim that it takes months to develop, lasts for months, and then takes months to go away, which doesn't really fit with our experience (certainly not the 'months to develop' part.) Of course, with medical info on the web, it's always hard to judge whether they know what they're talking about.
