Hi there Alices, and welcome to NeuroTalk. I'm so sorry to hear of your daughter's suffering, but pleased you came to us for advice.

I've not had Occipital Neuralgia myself but it sounds extremely painful.

If you haven't already found our Trigeminal Neuralgia Forum, here's the link: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum26.html

Maybe one of the lovely people in that forum can give you the information that you seek.

Another Forum you could try is the Headache Forum as there have been members there in the past who've posted about ON. Here's the link for that forum : http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum32.html

Good luck Alices. I hope you find the help you're seeking.
