Hi everyone,
I am very new to all of this. My name is Lauren. I was just diagnosed yesterday with TN. I am 21 years old living in Richmond, VA. My neurologist specializes in TN and I'm the youngest patient he's ever seen. I'm really scared right now because I've heard that the disease usually progresses over time. I can't even begin to imagine the pain I'll feel when I'm 40. I guess I'm looking for some information on how to cope with it. The medication I'm on makes me extremely tired. I've had to quit working, stop going to classes, and I can barely function. I'm scared. Any advice as to how to lift up my spirits or get my life back to normal would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much, Lauren |
