TMJ, let me know how what you find out about the surgery. I have checked into both surgeries, and am not sure which one would be best for me, considering I've not been through any consultations in person with the doctors. I've been told over the phone that I'd be a good candidate for the NDS, but that's done in Houston Tx by a Dr. Perry and Dr. Pamela Blake and I live in North East Tn which is quite a distance for me to travel. Something has to happen soon for me though, I have daily migraines and it pretty much drains you of living your life. I'm not on any heavy pain meds, just take fioricet, zanaflex, toradol maybe once or twice a week. I take zonegran as a preventative, and lamictal for a safety net from a seizure disorder that I have or should say had. I have been seizure free for 10 years as of June 11th! Yay!! I had brain surgery 10 years ago to remove scar tissue from the right side of my brain to help take care of the seizure and it worked! Now to get these migraines under control. Best of Luck! Mercyme
