Is there really any medical operation that helps Atypical pain or TN…? And if so where and when? Thanks just really wondering
Hi Amy
I have bilateral ATN. In January 2013I had MVD on the right side. As I had the burning boring pain on that side for 10 years, the procedure did not stop that pain, but it did stop the shocks. In August 2013 I Had a peripheral nerve stimulator implanted on that side for pain management, and it has been working extremely well. In October I had MVD on the left side, which had only been affected for about a year. I am now off all meds, and my left side pain is gone.
My neurosurgeon was Jeffrey Brown in NY.
Best of luck to you!
