My Neurologist said that usually if a nerve is going to regenerate, it happens within the first three years. It has been 4 1/2 years and nothing. It's just frustrating as you know.
The medications that I take are for the stabbing pains that I get and the constant pulling/crawling sensation. I'm not sure I believe they are doing anything for me. The Neurologist said that if these didn't work, they would just try something different. I just wish I knew of something that would work.
Do you have any problems with your eyes getting to dry. For some reason ever since the surg. I have problems with severe dry eyes.
