I have been suffering with TN for the past 7 years, but with support from my doctors and family it has made it bearable.

I have had TN for 5 years

TN is the worse pain known to man, so please help and give hope!

Trigeminal Neuralgia needs much more awareness

I have bilateral Trigeminal Neuralgia and am still holding down my job but only just There is no wide spread understanding of this disease and from that people with it suffer more due to this and believe me we don't need any more suffering

I am a TN sufferer for 3 and a half years, following Bell's Palsy, with only partial recovery.

Please add Trigeminal Neuralgia to your Health Topics list!

I have TN type 2b. We definitely need some sort of progression and resources to help all of us suffering.

had this for nearly 10 years now...neither meds nor ops seem to help so definitely more research needs to be done

Let's raise awareness and the hope for cures in the future

My dear sister-in-law has been battling TN since 2003. I can and will support TN Awareness as much as and in any way I am able.

I have Trigeminal Neuralgia and most days I can barely function, partly due to the disorder and some due to medication. This is the worst pain I have ever felt and nothing relieves it. We need more research done, the hospitals and healthcare workers need to be informed of this disorder so they can better treat us. Please help us.

I am 61, have had TN since 2009. For the younger people afflicted with this, my heart goes out to them. Their bodies are strong and still able to quickly grow new nerve cells, which can counter the positive affects of helpful procedures like stereotactic radiosurgery. Much research is needed to help figure out how to remedy this horrifyingly painful condition. Please add trigeminal neuralgia to your "Health Topics" list.

Let's find a cure for this dreaded and painful condition -- very soon!!!

I suffer with TN myself. I would love to get everyone out there to realize what we go through.

The public & medical field needs to be educated & made more aware of this condition. Thank you!
