Trigeminal Neuralgia

Error

I started with TN when I was 38 years old. I thought I had a sinus infection. I was bed ridden for 3 days. If I moved any part of my body my face hurt. Thanks to my DRs I was lucky to find out faster than most and start with TN meds. I have Neurologists in Grand Rapids and at the University of Michigan. They have advised against surgery or Gamma Knife until the pain becomes too much and my meds stop working. I have TN on both sides of my face. I have 4 children, 20, 18, 14 & 10. I have been married for 20 years. I work full time. Praying for a cure for all of us TN sufferers. Wishing you a pain free day â¤
