My Story: part 1

Today, I am going to start the process of going back to where my journey with Trigeminal Neuralgia all began.  I Have been walking this story for 15 years now.  I shared at the start of this blog that I will be going back and sharing the details of how it took me 28 doctors to even get a diagnosis and my fight for a cure.  I hope and pray that no one is taking that long to get help these days.  I hope you will stick with me as I go back and open up my journal entries and share my experiences and both good and bad.  It has been a long journey so I will take several post to piece my story together for you to have a better insight and understanding of how TN impacted me and my family.  It is my greatest hope that you can learn from some of my physicians mistakes and how things could have been handled so much better with more research, more support, and willingness to travel and try even more out of the box treatments.   

Please don't let my failures frighten you or deter you in anyway from reading on and believing God for answers in your own battle with TN.  I have had some good and some bad physicain experiences.  I have tried, failed, and succeded with many different medication trials.  I have had several proceedures and surgeries as well as trying more eastern medical treatments to come at my treatment from every angle possible. 

So, come along with me as I dive into my story.
