The mother-of-one shared a picture of herself in a hospital bed wearing her pyjamas as she flicked a V-sign at the cameras.
Charlotte, 35, who is best known for appearing on series two of The Traitors, wrote: 'Another day, another TN attack.'
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) attacks are sudden, severe episodes of shooting, electric shock-like pains in the face.
According to the , the attacks 'typically last from a few seconds to two minutes and are commonly triggered by everyday activities like chewing, brushing teeth, talking, or a cool breeze on the face.'
Back in January, Charlotte suffered a terrifying seizure that left her unable to walk after her brain surgery.

She was left unable to use her limbs after collapsing at her home just days after she was initially discharged from hospital.
A source close to the star told The Sun: 'Charlotte suffered a seizure and collapsed while at home.
After returning from hospital, she was incredibly run down and had developed tonsilitis and a mouth full of ulcers.
'She was on strong medication and it was a balancing act to find the right dose. Charlotte's doctors think her seizure was related to the new medicine she was put on. Her arms were limp and she couldn't walk. It was absolutely terrifying.'
The month before, Charlotte was rushed to A&E after suffering a 'terrible' trigeminal neuralgia attack, leaving her in agonising pain that she branded 'physical torture'.

As a result, she underwent neurosurgery to bring long term relief for the chronic condition - which is sometimes called 'the suicide disease' because of the impact the severe pain has on sufferers' mental health.
She was discharged after nearly three weeks and told fans in a social media post: 'After 18 days in hospital finally getting this bath I had dreamed about.

'Still a recovery to go but at least I'm with my little Penny again! And yes this is filtered, I look like horrendous s*** if not'.
Charlotte has previously opened up about her battle with trigeminal neuralgia (TN), already having had brain surgery in her twenties, before this most recent severe flare up.
Elsewhere, the star claimed in June 2024 that popstar Conor Maynard was allegedly the father of her unborn 'miracle' baby Penelope, having fallen pregnant as a result of a one-night stand.
Two paternity tests have since found that the singer who recently married Kitty Bertrand, is not the father, although Charlotte has staunchly insisted he is the dad.
