No, alot of people are not aware certain surgeries like this exist. Im going through the full Nueral Cranial Restructuring before i even think of surgery. But if they inject my occipital nerves and the pain goes away then ill have a diagnosis and be a candidate for surgery. Most doctors here are not even aware of this surgery. But i know a few specialist out of state. Hopefully the NCR helps and i can avoid any surgery :). We shall see. I did find xanax helps w my pain. Ive also heard xanax helping others w nerve pain. At least i found something i can take on the bad days. So i already did 4 ncr w major relief and hetting moneys together for my next 4. They are actually adjusting the sphenoid bone in the skull thru the nose w balloons and wow did it help me. Thans for asking Mr Brown hopefully everything going well on your end :).
