Hi there Tina.
I did remember it was an awful accident, but I didn't know you had gone through so much in recovering. What a trooper
Since Dad past my memory is just awful....so I can't recall what type of stimulator you had.

I do know my pain doctor is talking about a stimulator for my ON, but it it placed just under the skin. So not too traumatic.

A couple years ago I did discuss with my neuro team the option of a stimulator for my bilateral TN pain, I was told I would need the motor cortex stimulator or the deep brain stimulator. Both scared the bajibbers out of me I have had the MVD and gamma knives, but these seemed way more invasive.

I believe you said you did not have to have one of these 2. What one do you have then? Would you mind explaining the procedure to me. I have seen the other ones at medtronics, but I didn't think they were for TN....but if you have found any relief I would greatly like to hear about it!

Thanks again Tina Nikki
