I had trigeminal neuralgia for two years. I had my MVD operation a little over a year ago. Prior to my operation I had strong ear pain attacks and that was it. Now and for the past year after my MVD operation I am now having three attacks a day like I said along with many other symptoms that are destroying my life. I’ve been to my doctor and he told me nine months ago that there was nothing he could do. U Of M has basically cut me off including their pain clinic that hardly helps me. I have been to several hospitals for help i’ve been to Mayo clinic in March stayed for three days doctors were very nice but I’m still in the same predicament I’m not sure what to do. Again the doctors were very kind but I still walked away without a diagnosis and in tremendous pain I have tried so hard but they told me if UofM can’t fix it either they we. That was my other hospitals Mayo Clinic. I really like the doctors at Mayo Clinic I just thought I’d walk away with more help Ian’s answer. I’m sorry but I’m getting upset just Talking about it. Any help would be greatly appreciate it and thank you for getting back to me
