Recently diagnosed with TN.
Dont really know what variant of the disease I have.
Recent MRI shows blood vesel irritating the right V3 branch as oral surgeon thought.
Welcome! This is a great place for information and support. I wish you the best and hope you can find some relief with what ever treatment you choose. Be sure to ask questions if you have them. I’ve had MVD surgery on the left side and now have TN on the right side. Surgery pending on the right side while I recover from another surgery I had unrelated to my TN. I wish you the best and hope you have pain free days in the future.
Thanks Cynthia-
Meet with Oral Surgeon on Wednesday to schedule arthroplasty on right TMJ.
They found a blood vessel on my right tri nerve and think its contributing to the pain.
I can tell the difference in the pain which sounds really weird.
Good luck on your surgery !
Thinking MVD might be best option for me as well
