I am posting this for Smashagnome, who had an MVD that cured his GN! What hope that gives us! Here is the link to his article about it.

Thank you for sharing your success Smashagnome! I will let him reply to any comments here, since it's by him, not me.

I read her story...who was the neurosurgeon and where was it done?? Sharon
Thanks for bringing this link to the GN area.
I just wanted to say that I am male not female.

Oh sorry! I just changed all the "her"s to "him"s.

My mistake, Smashgnome is a guy, so I changed all the gender based words. He did it in Ottawa Canada.

so many woman are dx'd with this...it gets a bad wrap for women, we are viewed as high anxiety, emotional wrecks, so sorry we got this wrong, Sharon
No problem, It is more rare for men to get GN for sure.
I guess I got unlucky in the genetic wheel of life.
