Botox Injections

Has anyone had them for medical reasons and not cosmetic?

Does it hurt really bad? What can I expect? I am so scared, they are injecting these things into my neck. I want my bwankie!

Are you getting them for migraines? I'm going for Prolo therapy next month!

Yes, I have daily migraines. I take so many pain pills it is unreal. And most of the time they only take the edge off.

Me too and every preventative treatment they've tried has been a wash. I'm really excited!

Good luck to both of you. I hope you find relief in the treatments. I just made a bunch of Dr appointments this morning since it's been years (over 13 for some) since I went. I made an eye appt, general check-up, and a GYN appt. My luck, I'll go just to find out there's something wrong. I like being in the dark about things like that but my husbands been nagging me for years to go. He keeps saying "If you die, I'll have to raise the kids and we both don't want that to happen".

Yeah everything they have tried on me has not worked at all either. I am praying that this works if it doesn't I don't know what I will do. I am at the end of my rope. 20 yrs. I have suffered and have gotten no relief. I will let you know how it goes. I will be home before 4 tomorrow.

Who is you Dr.?

I'm sure you will be fine, unless you've been having symptoms of something wrong. I am 40 and have never had a bad GYN visit. You should be fine. Don't worry.

Thanks. No symptoms but that's what has me worried really. I don't want to think everything is fine and find out something has been wrong for years and never knew it. Regardless, I will feel better knowing either way. You'd think I'd be smarter about my health having two young kids.( to myself.) I am also going to start going to the dentist too. My kids have an appointment next month so I'll schedule one for myself when I schedule their next one.

Dr. Leon in Waldorf. Not one nuerologist has offered me anything that brought relief.

Look up prolotherapy. I want to try it opposed to the botox.

Of course it hurts! But it doesn't last long. What part of your neck? In the front/back? You have to be careful the botox doesn't cause swelling and breathing problems.
