Hi...My name is chris. I have been a
chronic sufferer of CH for almost 3 years now. I
have recently found out that I also have Trigeminal Neuralgia and Atypical face pain. My Neurologist is baffled and had sent me to one of the best Neurosurgeons in the state. I have tried
almost every medication without results...and the surgeon informed me this past friday, that there is little he can do. Even with surgery, my chances are less than 50 percent with great risk.
I hope they come up with something new...not only for myself...but for all of us. I start a pain clinic tommorrow, so hopefully I will get some relief there...I just know that er visits are getting costly, and I've been 3 times in the last month. Thankyou for your support!
Chris
