Some people with ATN do have successful treatments with MVD etc. But then many have not or it has gotten worse. It is a gamble.
I have been told to stay away from any invasive procedures, especially ones that damage the nerve. It is a very frustrating position to be in.

A neuro has suggested Radiofrequency Rhizotomy. I have heard from others that it made them worse. I would love to just numb the pain.
You never hear from people on these forums that have had success.
Is that because there is none. We just have to live with this the rest of our lives??
