I Have bi-lateral supra-orbital neuralgia. I have had a trial with a neuro-stimulator. Even though my pain is double-sided, the trial was only for one side. Yes.....it helped. I have been through what you have and more. However..it wasnt a dream come true. I havent had the permanent yet, but the trial did help. It helped because it took away the pain that was "taking me over the edge", it made my pain "liveable." I dont know if that makes sense. My name is supraorbital on this site if we want to be friends. I am sure our pain is very similar. I have been in pain for over three years.

I have occipital neuralgia on both sides . Have also had every non-surgical treatment. So far, I've had one series of Botox injections. Will have 2 more rounds, and then there's only surgery. I'm considering occipital release. Have you ruled that out for some reason? Did you take morphine prior to your neuro stimulator? How much? Thanks.
