purplebunny Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I got Botox yesterday for my Chronic Migraines. It went well My neuro said it could work straight away or take a few days/weeks to notice any difference. Last night was the first night since Oct 12 when I didn't have a migraine It was only 31 injections across injection sites in my forehead, temples, back of head/neck and shoulder blade area. It wasn't painful just more like a mild discomfort. Have go to back in another 3 months for another session, then will know after that if it works or not. If it works then we continue every 3 months. If not then it stops. purplebunny xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFH Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Bottox is a great strategy. Applying small bits of pressure on specific areas helps control headaches a lot. We hope to see you without headche for a long time Nimrodel and Plix Plox 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Starter Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Get well purplebunny! The Easter Bunny surely is missing your help Have you tried [i]Acupuncture[/i]? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplebunny Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Thanks everyone xxx One thing I didn't mention is that my GP exhausted all drug routes before referring me to my neuro. He in turn exhausted all other drugs and I got 2 different nerve blocks which didn't work. Botox was the only next option. Nimrodel: my neuro is the best in NI Fire Starter: yeah I tried that, it doesn't work for Chronic Migraine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
