A Trigeminal Neuralgia story

---

Hello everyone I was diagnosed with tn six or 7 years ago now instartedbto a get a stabbing pain in my head that just came from no where which gradually became worse and very severe quite quickly I have bilateral tn so both side of my head play up I tried every known drug to help with the pain and some rare drugs to try and help but haven't I had mvd surgery June 2015 and very quickly me and neurosurgeon realised that it had not worked for me i am currently taking very large doses of morphine of everyday just to try and help me feel comfortable My tn is daily battle mine doesn't come and go and have attacks day in day out and because of this can no longer work as I was finding the lights in work where triggering the pain along with computers TVs etc other triggers are wind rain cold days certain food and drinks. The last few years have left me unable to pretty much unable to go out or make plans to do anything as cannot tell how I will in that day I the medication I am in makes me extremely tired and sick although taking anti sickness pills to be honest although I consider myself lucky I still wouldn't wish this illness on anyone not only is it extremely painful but it leaves you isolated well it does me as I can't do anything. If I have any questions feel free to ask
