This is just a follow up to my original post.
It has been almost two weeks since my PSR and I am happy to say that I am feeling better.
My TN pain is not 100% gone but it seems to now be limited to the middle branch on my left nerve, I still have pain in my cheekbone and sideburn area however it is not as sharp as before the PSR but sometimes it does get real intense.
My jaw area has had no pain to speak of and that is the area where I have the most numbness; mainly my lower gum, lip and corner of my mouth and some of my chin but it's not as noticeable as I feared.
I still have some pain, light dizziness and occasional blurred vision from the surgery but it is becoming far less frequent and I still have more healing to do too.
Tomorrow I take my last dose of Dilantin unless the TN pain is too much.
If anyone is considering a PSR I'm just posting this because before I had mine I could find very little firsthand information from people who have had it.
