I have the worst insurance (Kaiser) who won’t budge in terms of letting me even *speak* to a pain specialist. It took me two years to see a neurologist!

So.. I went around the system and was lucky enough to see my aunts friend in another state who is a pain specialist in the south. He gave me advice and Botox in my v2 nerve and told me that if I don’t get MVD sooner rather than later, that the damage is done and no surgery will ever fix it in the future.

Basically, he scared the hell out of me.

Has anyone else’s doctor told them this?

I’m already on 1200mg of Oxcarbazepine and never been pain free.
