International Trigeminal Neuralgia Awareness Day October 7th!

Pour la petition de Marshall Pate, Bon courage et bonne chance.

I wish to be a part of this petition as a sufferer myself frm TN. I hope to bring great awareness and a hope to all suffering from it.

My mother is suffering for more than 20 years and iam hoping there will be more research to stop this pain

Trigeminal Neuralgia is a debilitating condition. Unfortunately being fairly rare, not enough money is allocated towards research and a possible cure.

Avec tous mes souhaits de réussite à cette pétition qui pourra peut faire bouger le monde médical

I have had Trigeminal Neuralgia since 2008. I had an Acoustic Neuroma removed in 2008 and they could not save my 7th cranial nerve. I have been dealing with it since and no relief. My neurologist tried a shot in the neck but it did not help. I did the research on this and presented it to my neurologist. He thought it could be possible, but he is now sure I have it. Doctors need to be more educated and more studies need to be done to reconnect these nerves and reduce the pain!!

More people need to know about trigeminal neuralgia and more $$ need to be raised to help find a cure or a reasonable treatment.

We need all the help we can get.

Je prie pour cette jeune maman; qu'elle trouve sa guerison et le comfort necessaire pour faire face a cette penible situation.

Beaucoup de courage pour la maman et felicitations a Marschall. De Tres grosses a tous

Tous avec toi cousine.. Félicitations marshall

I suffer from TN myself, it is livening hell.

Should be easier to get help for SSD- I still can't get approved but yet my friend did for irritable bowel??? My brain is suffering everyday! I can't function most hours, my life is hell

I had this and eventually after going private I found an extremely good neurologist. He wasn't sure what exactly was wrong with me at the time as I was in so much pain. My symptoms escalated over a month from a random pain every 3-4 hours until I was in constant pain. I was misdiagnosed everytime, in A&E constantly, not sleeping, not eating and had a hopeless feeling of never getting rid of this pain. I had seen over 20 doctors, an optician and 2 dentists. I had almost given up hope and got down on my knees one night in the middle of the hospital begging to be put in acoma. I asked my own dad to hit me with a spade. If I hadn't of found a temp cure I would have taken my own life. This is a real disease, and should be taken seriously. This affects real lives, and people do not believe you really have this invisable pain. The doctors made me feel like I was lying. Thankfully I only have pain every now and then from permanent scaring in the back of my left eye. I live in fear that this disease will return and destroy my life again. Please take action! This is real. This destroys lives. It hurts families and people live in fear of not knowing why.

I have had this awful disease for too many years. Please find a cure!
