As a TN sufferer I was recently delving into research and came upon this website. Please consider reading about the impressive TN work being conducted and lending your support. I do not represent this organization, but like you, want a cure within 10 years or much sooner! We're desperate for an answer and they are desperate to find the cure for us. It sounds awesome:
I've read Facing Facial Pain -- and frankly, I'm not impressed. It's not enough just to "want" a cure, even though I'm sure we all do. Their go-it-alone approach is a prescription for failure. They need to be finding ways to leverage the millions of dollars being invested in ongoing transitional research funded by the US National Institutes of Health -- and it's very clear from their web site that they simply aren't interested in doing that.
