Welcome @nashdak, They don’t cure the condition but just treat the neuralgia pain symptoms. Hopefully members with experience can share more about MVD surgery.

Have you discussed surgery with your doctor?

Yes in Feb when I had this episode neurologist said medicine is not working so Surgery. As my pain come twice in a year for 2montha. Strange. So now I am having the pain and neurologist appointment date is 26th Aug.
I have seen few online neurosurgeon who are also recommending MVD.
One of the neurologist I saw in other hospital said there are severe side effect and risk of MVD so better you try medicine which also has side effect but compare to surgery is better. But medicine is not working so I have to take the risk. I hear it is 80 to 90% success rates.
