She Had Difficulty Even Drinking Water Due to Trigeminal Neuralgia Pains

Esra Aytekin Keleş, a 39-year-old teacher who could not move her face due to trigeminal neuralgia pains and had difficulty even drinking water, applied to the doctor with the diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia, which is called "maddening disease" among the people. When he could not get results from the different drug treatments he used for a long time, Esra Keleş, who found the solution in acupuncture treatment, got rid of her pain over time. Due to his illness, she no longer needed the medications. Yeditepe University Complementary Medicine Center Supervisor Dr. Berna Atay recalled that the cause of trigeminal neuralgia, which manifests itself with severe pain felt in the facial region, is not fully known.

“My Pain Got Worse Day by Day”

Esra Keleş, a mother of a child who stated that the dose of the drugs she used increased gradually after being diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia, said: ''Although the dose of my medicine increased, there was no change in my pain. After that, I could no longer wash my face, brush my teeth, talk, or eat. While desperately searching the internet, we came across Dr. Atay. I came to this clinic as an emergency case and he immediately took me to the session. Within a month of starting treatment, I stopped smoking with the support of my doctor. After 2.5 months of taking the drug, I got pregnant. And for 9 months I had a beautiful and healthy pregnancy with no pain at all. And now I have a four-month-old baby.”

She Could Not Even Drink Water

Stating that modern medicine has not yet found a definitive solution, Yeditepe University Complementary Medicine Center Responsible Dr. Berna Atay gave the following information about her patient: "Trigeminal neuralgia is a disease whose cause is not fully known. When Mrs. Esra came to us, she could not speak because of her pain. Moreover, she could not eat anything, she had difficulty drinking soup or even water. When she came to us, she was in a lot of pain and panicked. She had severe pain in her face. This pain was unbearable for her. ”

Pulse Examination of Chinese Medicine Is Used 

Dr. Berna Atay stated that before starting acupuncture treatment, she first performed a pulse examination and ear scan with a detector. “By using silver, gold, and steel needles where we receive signals, we create a calming and pain-relieving effect in the ear and some parts of the body, especially in the problematic facial area, by both needle and laser acupuncture treatment.” Dr. Berna Atay continued as follows: “After starting the treatment of Mrs. Esra, we gradually reduced her medication. The treatment aims to ensure that the patient is fully healed. In trigeminal neuralgia, if the patient will continue to use medication, we aim to keep it to a minimum. In the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, we perform both traditional needle acupuncture and laser acupuncture. We only apply laser acupuncture to those with needle phobia.”
 
She Recovered and Became a Mother
Stating that her patient has reservations about a pregnancy due to the drugs she uses, Yeditepe University Complementary Medicine Center Responsible Dr. Berna Atay: “Our patient became pregnant after stopping her medications during the treatment process.”
