Hi everyone. I had MVD surgery a week ago for TN and have not experienced any relief since then. The nerve pain feels exactly the same. I still take my medications and feel the pain in between doses or if I talk or chew a lot.

If you had MVD surgery, how long did it take for you to feel measurable relief?
