I am signing this petition because I have a dear friend who is in constant, searing pain. He also has lung cancer, but says the latter is easy to live with comparatively

My brother has been suffering with disease for the last 2 years. He is only 37. He has tried medication, brain surgery, and an excruciation procedure using a needle to his face with no pain relief. All has failed. He suffers from nonstop pain and depression.he can't live like this and needs help. Please include this disease.

My mother suffered with this for over 10 years before having brain surgery to try to relieve her pain. Now she has hearing and numbness issues. Please find a cure!

I hope sufferers of this intensely painful disorder get more resources and research dedicated to their problem.

Hi I have watched my mother suffer from this for over 15 years. After years of going diagnosed and dealing with the pain she finally had the courage to have the micro-vascular decompression surgery. Unfortunately this did not solve the problem and after five more years back on the medication she has recently had the less invasive needle to disrupt the nerve. This has finally, after 15 years given her relief from the pain, if only through numbing one side of her face. She is an amazing women who immediately after the surgery set up her own business. I have untold respect and sympathy for any suffers of this evil debilitating disorder and am happy to give any support I can to raising awareness which leads to further research to rid this suffering. Thank you for your work, Kind regards David Savage
