It's great to have you here at NT! You'll be amazed at how much support and care you'll find here.
You ask a very good question! We have a forum here specific to occipital neuralgia. Here is the link to get you there:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/fo...ysprune=&f=105
It would be a great idea to post your question over there and you'll get some good input. There's lots to read over there. Take note at the top of the page, there is a little section called 'The Stickey's'. Good stuff.
I hope you start getting answers soon!
Caring,
Rae
