Guest guest Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Janet, Sharon's MRI's came out normal also, as far as we are aware.But they didn't do them with contrast, which does make a difference. The post that AngelMCS put up on Dr. Singer explains alot of this. Sharon was diagnosed with trigeminal neuralogia and at that time the doctor wanted to setup surgery and cut the trigeminal nerve on her rt side to stop the head and facial pain. This scared the hell out of us and trying to get a second opinion, we couldn't get another doctor to agree with that procedure. That's the old way for people with this condition. I'm glad we didn't go through with it. KC > > I also have what they call nuralgia in my face but my mri came out ok. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 We've had the same thing Janet. Only one side of Sharon's face would be numb and most of the time very painful. Her temple would swell and discolor also. And finally the doctor saw and acknowledge this, only to tell us it was normal. Yeah right.... We knew the facial pain and the head pain would not subside until we removed some of the toxins. The CSM has helped some. This type of pain even morphine doesn't help and I have been told that by several doctors. Which I already knew because they (the pain) are not vascular. They are toxins attacking the nerves. Ok, if anybody else can explain what viral meds are, I would be interested. I've always been told that a virus has to run its course. KC > > KC > They did the MRI with contrast.
