Does Any Other Member Have Trigeminal Neuralgia?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
Halifax, NS

I was diagnosed in 2006 and had micro vascular surgery in 2009. Unfortunately the surgery was not successful.I suffer daily with chronic pain and can no longer work. It would be nice to speak to connect with someone who has and is dealing with this horrific disease. I am now in my 11th year and it's really starting to hit me now that my life will never be the same as it was. I'm not looking for sympathy or pity just someone who I can relate to. Thank you.

Hi Patti - thank you for your response. I do not have fibro. I have trigeminal neuralgia - a brain disease that causes me constant chronic pain. This is a rare disease. Hugs back to you.

Fibro is a deseae of it's own! There are no set problems, the Dr. has a difficult time diagnosing it! It takes a lot of tests before you are told that it is fibro! I feel sorry for you! Take good care of yourself, your the only one that can!! Hugs to you!

Yes , having Multiple Sclerosis’s for 15 years I have a lot of Chronic pain, including Fibromyalgia, Neuropathy and trigeminal neuralgia . I’ve lost three teeth and yes I’m treated horrible at times. People that don’t get it is basically family and people that are close to me, so yes I feel very lonely at times I can’t sleep and because of this opioid crisis we are all suffering. I wish I had more support, but I don’t and I feel like a criminal at times from others. Is there someone who lives in Phoenix Arizona area that has similar problems that could help me ? I would love more feedback about how your feeling too and how your treated. Thank you !!
