Jean My mother suffered from trigeminal neuralgia or tic doloreaux. it is a horrible malady. Right before she died in August 2003 she saw Dr. Thomas Waltz at Scripps Clinic in La Jolla California. The medication, Tegretol, only did so much and there were side effects. Often it failed to work. Waltlz did my 2 DBSs but also was known for treating TN. In fact, somewhere I have a page on him and tic doloreaux, but I'm looking for it, I can't find it. He was 73 years old when he did my surgery - don't know if he is still practicing or not. Email me back if you can't contact Scripps, I know the info is here somewhere.
