Hope beyond facial pain: a trigeminal neuralgia information evening

Living with trigeminal neuralgia can be challenging, but understanding your condition and the treatment options available is often the first step towards finding relief.

Join us for a free information evening with Mr Kenan Deniz, Consultant Neurosurgeon, delivered in partnership with the Trigeminal Neuralgia Association UK (TNA UK).

Designed for individuals affected by trigeminal neuralgia, as well as family members and carers, this event will provide expert insights into one of the most painful neurological conditions and the range of treatments available to help manage symptoms.

During the session, Mr Deniz will discuss:

• What trigeminal neuralgia is and why it occurs
• Common symptoms and how the condition is diagnosed
• Medication and non-surgical pain management approaches
• Surgical treatment options and who may be suitable for them
• What patients can expect throughout their treatment journey
• Sources of ongoing support and advice

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and gain practical guidance from an experienced specialist, helping them better understand their condition and the pathways available for long-term symptom management.

Whether you have recently been diagnosed, have been living with trigeminal neuralgia for some time, or are supporting a loved one with the condition, this event offers a valuable opportunity to learn more in a supportive and informative environment.

Date: Thursday 12th November
