I am 36 and have been living with this beast since about August last year. You can't even begin to understand how much my life and those around me have been impacted. In this day and age, where medicine has progressed significantly, there has to be more that can be done for myself and other sufferers.

Please recognise TN as a devastating disease... I recently had an MVD , and a subsequent brainstem stroke from the surgery, but I'd go through it again to stop the TN pain!!! We need a CURE!!!

It was so lovely to meet young lady Lagi L at the hospital yesterday. draped in her hosp gown i find her 'staggering' up & down the ward pinning up a poster & lil business cards. I asked what it was & she explained to me what trigeminal was while trying to breathe. This poor young lady is in so much pain but still trying to spread as much awareness she can from her hospital bedside. THEY NEED A CURE ASAP!

My 29 year old daughter has been a TN warrior for the past 5 years. Please find a cure for this unimaginable condition. The world needs to know more about and put a cure at the front of the list. Thank you.

I think I am also suffering from this, but because the medical community is severely under knowledgeable about this condition, it's hard for me to get a proper diagnosis.

I have been suffering from TN for only 4 months and my quality of life has reduced by 90%, it's just a battle to get up and get through each day. More research and awareness is required as there is so little information out there to help me and others like me.

I have had this disease for 25 years. I am in my late 60's and there are no options for me anymore however, I want to make sure that the younger people don't end up at a dead end street like I did

one of my best friends has this and it's terrible to know what she goes through on a daily basis... hopefully people can get more knowledge about it and a cure can be found... love you Aimee <3
