Living with Occipital Neuralgia: how patients cope day to day and stay positive - real experiences and practical tips.
It causes SO much depression. I am only 44 so think I could live the rest of my life with this was unbearable. I had a LOT of dark days and lucky to have family and friends see me thru it. Now that I am 6 weeks post op and feeling better I can feel my happiness return

Living with chronic pain is no way to live. Accepting the pain is unacceptable.

I have lived with it since 1981.I was on Morhphine {Avinza 120mg} which was the first medicine
that took away my pain. And I had been on a lot of them. Even anti-seizure meds.But I moved further down south and the pain Dr. decided to take me off the Avinza.I think he was afraid I would be addicted.The Occipital Neuralgia came raging back.This is now after years of awful treatments that have left scars in my scalp.So the Dr. said I need the nerves clipped but my insurance has denied it. So I don't know if you can really be happy with this when your stuck now with no pain solution.
