Very interesting study. I live just outside of Toronto in Canada, where one of the researchers is located.
I actually do think there is a hereditary link. I have Atypical TN. My mother has suffered from classic TN throughout her whole adult life. She also has MS and there are links between MS and TN. My great-grandmother also had TN, only they didn't know what it was back then.

I've shared it on Facebook, Twitter and Pintrest. Feel free to do the same. I'm not sure I agree that TN is a genetic disorder, but nevertheless any story in the media is a good story.
