Numbness is caused by the dreaded complication of a failed MVD. Numbness is caused by injury to the TN nerve in different ways. The left side of my face is totally numb because of one failed MVD and two other surgeries at Mayo clinic. One was to partially cut the nerve which threw me into excruciating pain. Two days later, they went back in and severed the TN nerve. I now have AD and constant pain 24\7.
Anesthesia Delorosa means numbness as the Anesthesia part
