What a wonderful report today! So happy you found relief and I hope it stays with you for a very long time!

You will enjoy each day so much more. Even the simple things!

Your story is encouraging for others where the balloon compression could help.

Have a GREAT day....PAIN FREE! Wahoo!

Hi Sluggo, the easy answer would be to say google "balloon compression for trigemina neuralgia" Before I had it done I need alot of research. I even found a video on how it is done. Look into it. Of course because I am running around completely numb on the left side I would say...have it done, it's wonderful but I know it hasn't worked for some of us just like a MVD didn't work for me. Talk to your neuro about options. Are you using drugs to help control pain at all? I hope you find something, hard to hear you are in agony. Please keep me posted

Take care of you, Linda

Still good but I wake up every morning and the first thing I do is touch my face. The fear is still there. When will it be over? Again thank you so much everyone for being happy for me. Good things are a great thing to share with friends.

Take care of you,

Linda

Hi Linda, so glad for you, my operation was in november, but it didn’t work unfortunately so looking for something else… Desperate to be pain free? Aren’t we all? Hope your recovery continues… Love Anne
