Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a common form of facial neuropathic pain that is limited to the regions supplied by the branches of the trigeminal nerve. TN can be excruciatingly painful. It is a sharp, stabbing or "electric-shock" like pain.
Trigeminal Neuralgia is agonizing. Between attacks, there's a constant dread of the next onslaught. It's an unyielding struggle. Since 1988, I've been living in this perpetual cycle. The side effects of medications are immense. Despite undergoing five surgeries, I've come to terms with the fact that this is my enduring reality.
