Fishing for info
 
I don't know if anyone can answer this or not. If the neurosurgeon severs the T.N. nerve, would it be cut close to the brain stem so all three branches are cut or would it be one branch severed? I know this is pretty deep but maybe someone can have some input? Thank you, Doodle bug7

if the Neuro cut the t.n. nerve I would think it would be before the t.n. nerve braches out...
other wise they would say I severed the v-1
or V-2. v-3
I would say the neuro cut close to brain before the branching out.

Everlasting memories
 
If you remember the problems I had not too long ago with the zaps I was having and really upset. Well....believe it or not that was just the prelude for things to come. All I did was sneeze and a terrific spasm pain hit my lower jaw. The pain remained with me for over a week. It was so severe that my husband had to stay home from work for 3 days to take care of me. My regular Doc got me in to see a Neuro in Joplin Mo. about 30 minutes away. Changed meds around again and added some. An everlasting job. The pain has gone now and I just have my regular pain. It didn't clear up because
of the new meds cause the pain suddenly stopped the day before I got them. Gotta go cause I have warm wet tears running down my cheek. Sorry. Bless, Doodle bug7
Thank you very much for writing to me!
