Anesthesia Dolorosa (AD) is one of the most dreaded complications of the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. It occurs when the trigeminal nerve is damaged by surgery or physical trauma, resulting in numbness in the face,
I have been living with AD for ten years now.I have felt the good, the BAD and the UGLY.The left side of my face is numb but I still feel Horrific pain Somehow, the pain from A.D. is not as scary as T.N. for me cause I thought constantly about the huge bolt of lightening that could arrive every day, every minute, every second. I became a neurotic shell of a person dehydrated and would not speak. What a life.........then my husband said "were going to Mayo clinic" and we did. Rochester Minn. was eight hours away. I had two brain surgeries and the last one was to sever the nerve. We were there for three weeks. Thank you for listening, Doodle bug7 |
