Well I went to see a Neurosurgeon in St. Louis, Mo. at Washington Hospital today after I had my MRI early this morning. He diagnosed me 3 weeks ago as having Glossopharylgneal (Glosso-Fair-n-ja-neal) Neuralgia. It's severe pain around the ear, jaw, sinus, tongue & throat. My family Doctor thought I had Trigeminal Neuralgia but what I have is commonly misdiagnosed for Trigeminal Neuralgia. The neurosurgeon told me today that he does about 50 surgies a year for Trigeminal neuralgia but only about 2 for Glossopharyngneal. That's how rare it is. His experience he found it's best to cut the nerve for this neuralagia rather than pad it. When cut it leaves parts of your tongue and throat numb then. Which I alreay have with never having any surgery. It may come back if he pads it though. So it's a tough decision to cut or not to cut the nerve. I voted not to cut and to just insert the pad for now. He said he can always go back in and cut it if the pad does not work.
Hope none of you get it. It can feel like an ice pick is being forced in behind and under you ear and someone is trying to move it around. Horrible.

My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
