i was listening to bz raidio where i live and they were talking about these new shots in certian muscel on your back , neck, face ect... that stop ch for a month to 2 months, but it cost $1000 per proceedure , are we being price gouged by the health industury or what ?.
the meds that do work are thru the roof price wise its like the worst off you are the more it will cost you to feel better, its all about profit at least in the states it is i dont know about other countries, but it makes me sick a, enough that i would move to canada if i could afford to move there.

Aint no doubt about it Cazman. The US labs are all about Profit. My Neuro told me the reason CH is relatively unknown is strictly due to the unprofitibility of it! Only way its ever gonna have any type research done for it is through profit raising by people like us!

I read about this in the Wall St Journal yesterday.  It is the Botox injections and they cost about $1000 per treatment.  They are doing a study with the results expected in about 1-2 years.

I've had some shots in the back of my neck at the bottom of my skull. They were "Occipital Nerve Blocks". Is that what you were reading about or was it Botox? I've heard that the Botox injections were not all that successful.
