TN is a life changing disease which
affects the whole family. It's so hard to watch a loved one suffer and not be able to help them. This disease needs greater research to find a cure.

This is such a cruel, intensely agonising condition. It is not surprising it is also known as The Suicide Disease

I have trigeminal neuralgia AND cluster headaches at the same time every year. The pain is horrific. It took me 4 years to get it properly diagnosed and the search for a doctor who had the knowledge to treat it was just as bad. New medications for treatment must be developed because current medications do not work sufficiently enough and have many undesirable side effects. Thank you for considering this petition and request for assistance on this extremely important issue.

We must find a cure, but we also need doctors and staff to understand, to be knowledgeable. We deserve no less.

I was first diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia on
Jan. 19, 2014. People just have no idea what we go thru and how debilitating this disorder is. I'm glad to see someoneis trying to change that.

So many sufferers first spend futile time with Dentists undergoing unnecessary extractions and root canal treatment. We need dentists to be more aware of TN.
I have watched my son endure multiple daily attacks often hours long, it is so very cruel that he wants his life to end.
He wasted time with dentists, and his GP seemed to think he was weak telling him ' it's only pain'. Thankfully he now has sight of light at the end of the tunnel after contacting a Neurosurgeon myself who has been so understanding.
