After years of frustration and many specialty doctor visits, I have been diagnosed with geniculate neuralgia. I spoke with the neurosurgeon and neurologist about surgery but am undecided and am weighing pros and cons. I would like to know what some other ppl have done to get relief, how you manage your pain, how severe your case is, etc. Also, are you being treated at a major university?

I have never been able to talk with anyone who suffers from this so hearing your stories may help me feel like I am not alone.
