My daughter has suffered with TN2 for 6 years. She is 39 years old and has an 8 year old son. She had gone from a wonderful, playful, busy mom to a disabled depressed mom in agonizing pain. She is unable to care for her little boy and unable to live on her own.

As someone who suffers from Trigeminal Neuralgia I would like to see more done to help figure out why we are suffering from this in the first place.

This disease affects every aspect of my life, and renders me unable to talk or eat without excruciating pain. Because it hasn't been listed by the WHO, there are no specific medications to alleviate the suffering. The few that help some have dire and lasting side effects, some of which are brain damaging, e. g. Neurontin.

I have had TN2 & TNP since 1998. I am in constant pain. I will sign whatever is needed to help give this disease more recognition & hopefully someday a cure.

Nearly every day i suffer from this disease and I can say first hand it truly is debilitating. The fact that so many take their own life due to the pain and the depression is completely unacceptable and we NEED to find a cure!
