Hi Alices,
There is a neurology forum called "BrainTalkCommunities Online Patient Support Groups for Neurology". This site is almost identical to the one that we are on, but they have a forum specifically for Occipital Neuralgia. I just checked to be sure. Since I am new here, I cannot post a link, but google what is in "quotes" above, and you should be able to find it.
Best of luck, I hope you are able to find the information that you are looking for.

yes possible a good idea to have an o.n. forum here at neuro talk cus there seems to be more people joining who have that and we have some here already with o.n.
I have my trigeminal nerve cut, snapped in two severed from auto accident. that kind of pain is now considered phantom pain. my neuro stim helps by mixing the signal so it dose not go back to my brain saying pain pain. it dose not take away all the pain feeling but the heavy pain is controlled enough so I can have a semi "normal" life now.
I will asks mods about o.n. fourm here at nero maybe they will do a trial run and if there is enough posting we will have one too.
Peace and blessings to you and family

Yes, there is a O.N. forum at B.T., but not much is ever posted there...I guess that's why I mostly stay here...

okay I mentioned to the mods and admins maybe having a O.N. sub forum here at neuro talk.
so we will see. I noticed there have been more people coming here with it more in the new members forum but some in here also. I dont know if there is enough to get a sub forum or not . so all you O.N. people should post if a sub forum appears.
Peace

Well the great folks who make this place what it is have made a forum for O.N. here is the link

That's great, thanks for the new forum! I've been away for a few days, (first vacation away on my own in ages...even if it was too short! lol) so, it's my first check-in this week! I'll post in there soon, when I get myself sorted out! lol
