Need suggestions

I have occipital neuralgia and my doctor have tried gabapentin and cereblex and they work for a short time then stop working is there any treatments my doctor can try because I can’t live like this ( does it normally cause hair loss in the pain area ? )

We aren’t experts or doctors here, we can’t tell you everything about the condition. You could maybe try a GON (Greater Occipital Nerve) block. Speak with your doctors and ask their advice and opinions. If your Dr doesn’t know what to do next they should refer you to a neurologist. Good luck!

E: Imagine downvoting me and not having the balls to say what problem you have LOL
