For someone who has only struggled with this for 6 months (just seen a specialist last week ) it’s the worst pain I’ve ever felt pain in jaw cheeks head all left side of my face I’m on oxcarbazepine the carbazepine didn’t work well with other medication I’m on for Ménière’s disease for some reason but knowing there’s light at the end of the tunnel is helping massively glad your feeling better and fingers crossed it stays that way for you
Hey thanks. Unfortunately, Gammaknife wore off 😫 I had a different procedure, a radio frequency ablation, a few weeks ago, so letting that set in a bit, but will make a new video about that soonish. Between the two procedures though, I also switched to oxcarbazepine from carbamazepine which I definitely tolerate better as well. Still not amazing though
I had gammaknife 3 yrs ago suffered with tn for 35 yrs I was ready I did not get 😊 Lana Cain when they screwed the cage on hurt really bad the pressure from screwing the cage on,,,, but it does ease off the pressure this was done at Toronto Western hospital. The doctors neurosurgeons don’t expect any bedside manner. They were not very nice. They don’t tell you what they’re gonna do. They just start doing it anyway it took eight months before the gambit knife worked. I woke up one day the pain was gone, it’s been three years and still no pain. I would definitely do it again when the pain comes back. I’m on Lyra Carmine clonidine, amitriptyline, lorazepam baclofen, and I keep taking the drugs as I’m so afraid to terrible pain. Will come back minus from MS which I was diagnosed when I was 30 I’m now 65😂
I have MS and trigeminal N. I am going for a consultation with a neurosurgeon to see if gamma knife is a good option for me. I am also taking gabapentin. Good to see the process!
@@mldrohanone doubt I have do you have only ms or also any vessel is nearby Trigeminal nerve too as sometimes it's also present in general population so that's why I asked it
@@paulweston6263 then go for gamma knife but one thing is there , some cases are also there when small venules are arteries are causing symptoms and they are not seen on the mri but these are very less as compared to other seen ones
When I started having the pain I thought I had something like bone cancer in my face, the pain was so severe that I thought I was going to blank out. I went to the doctor and was given an epilepsy drug and that has stopped it, but the tablet is horrible.
Yep, the epilepsy drugs seem to be the go to prescription. I got to appoint where I couldn’t tolerate any more carbamazepine, because I felt it was making me so weak in my daily life. My doctor switched me to oxcarbazepine in May, and that took a while to find the right dosage and timing, but I think I’m there. The last month things have been fairly under control (knock on wood!) hoping it lasts for a while, because I’m tolerating it better, too.
Try the following technique for instant trigeminal neuralgia pain relief: 1. Isolate where the pain is coming from 2. Locate the mirror image on the opposite side of the body 3. Massage the area on the opposite side of the body (you should notice tenderness) 4. Check the bad side to determine changes to your pain level 5. Continue until your pain is manageable th-cam.com/video/b6_5ca6jCDI/w-d-xo.html
It’s definitely helped, but the effects have been wearing off a bit, which they said would probably happen. Just sooner than I was hoping, but definitely still better than before 🤞
Grateful Dead. Good choice! Thanks for sharing. I had no idea how this was treated.

Hey where did you go to have your coconut oil infusion ???? Sounds interesting 🤔

interesting, thanks
I’m on 1200mg a day. I feel I’m getting close to doing surgery.
How are you doing post surgery? So hope it helped
Did it work ?
Wow I am scared
Did it work ??

@mldrohan have you seen Dr Ben sutter on here ?
