After four years of torment I am now pain-free thanks to this Facial Nerve Stimulator, which I understand is a new procedure.

I still have to take my normal meds, but it is a godsend.

My husband wrote [this article telling our story](http://biggovernment.com/jjmnolte/2010/07/07/after-facing-the-very-worst-of-our-healthcare-system-i-still-oppose-obamacare/). I am sorry it's political, but please look past that and if anyone would like me to help you get in touch with my doctors, please let me know.

God bless you all.

Julie,  
Great. I am glad it worked. Maybe others will try it. Did your neurosurgeon do the procedure ?

It was my neurosurgeon and another doctor. They were both in there.
