I have TN on gabapentine until surgery

I had surgery for my TN about 8yrs ago - its back but my surgeon and I used balloon compression! 30 min op, no scar and I'm good for about 8yrs so far! Awaiting repeat surgery, on gabapentin with panadol and ibuprofen. It's ok but can't wait for my op again, any day now! 🎈 Don't give up... I'm 42 now and thrilled there is an end to it!
