Has anyone had any success with a trigeminal rhizotomy? I saw Dr. Rosson at Johns Hopkins earlier this month, and this was about the only treatment he thought might work. Ideas?

Hi, I had it in May 2014 and it has given me some relief but the pain is back and I'm back on med's. I now have a numb right side and ear that can't hear. I do wish you the best.
