There are approximately 1500 new cases annually (about 5 of every 100,000 people) and Canada has a current population of 42.2 million currently. It is a life long affliction. Average diagnosis is at age 50-60 years (but I was 30) and average life expectancy in Canada is 81 years.
So, on average, how many people have Trigeminal Neuralgia in Canada? Please help. I'm aparently horrid at #maths lol! #mathematics #TNWarrior #chronicpain #NEISVoid
Could be wrong but how about average age 50 dies at 80 so thirty years with new diagnosis of 1500 a year 1500 x 30 = 45,000
