A voice of reason and options emerges
When I was first diagnosed with TN, I was confused by a deluge of information. Weigel gently guides the reader through well-presented discussion of the neurological disorder and its treatments, both medical and alternative. A good choice for anyone who has or knows someone with trigeminal neuralgia.

Lifesaver
This book took me to Dr. Casey in Pgh and saved my life. It explained there were other alternatives than to live with the terrible pain. I have bought 4 copies of this book and have given it to people that are dealing with TN, as well as loaned out my copy. I feel the author knows how much help he has been as he also suffers from the condition.

Open minded expert advice
As a chiropractor I was fascinated at the wide array of treatments explored for this debilitating condition. The chapter on upper cervical chiropractic vindicated what many chiropractors have found with patients who respond to this specialty form of chiropractic. After actually meeting him in Australia, I was amazed to discover that Dr Casey is one of the most prominent neurosurgical specialists, carrying out thousands of successful surgeries on TN sufferers. A must for sufferers and supportive network members, who are looking for "whatever works" and not just what your average doctor might believe.
