Just a harmless question :)

If you're pure melee and the troll is giving you troubles, do like this: wait until the troll is about to hit, then get out of the way (he may hit twice) and swoop back in for the attack. When your fus shout is available use it to interrupt an attack instead.

Another piece of advice you can use here (and with other eneimies) is if you use a one-handed malee attack have a shield and bash (basically hold down right mouse button and to bash press left button) him before he attacks. Will usually interrupt an enemy attack as well, you have to make sure you have stamina though to do this. (Don't know if this works with a non-shield as I use one-handed sword and shield for the majority of my attacks.)

I highly recommend shield-bashing trolls at any opportunity. Maybe it's just me, but I find that to be quite entertaining. (As well as being an effective technique.)
