I have many different opiates at home for "break through pain", but nothing really helps with nerve pain.......sigh.....

My neurologist is making appointments for me to see the pain clinic and the neurosurgeons to talk about having a stimulator put in. They wanted me to have this a few years ago, but Dad was really against it. He was beside himself with worry over me having yet another brain surgery. I wont have the deep brain stimulation for my TN, but I am reconsidering the one for my ON. It isn't as invasive, and if there is a chance it can help, I feel I must take it.

I will be here, I NEED to be here and I will post when I can
Big hugs for everyone
