Thank you Tim.

How great to hear that you haven't had pain since May 2006 (is that the date of your MVD?). Yes, Miracles DO HAPPEN. We have to set aside our fears sometimes in order to achieve them, though.

My Neurosurgeon said that the MVD is one of the best forms of treatment for TN. Yet his concern is that so many wait too long to go that route: they try every other treatment available first, because of the fear of surgery near the brain....And the odds of success in the MVD diminish after about the 4 year point...so many people are suffering and yet there IS a fix.

I am amazed at my life post-MVD. It's BACK.

WOO HOOOO
