Title: Botox Injections
Post by clopez on Mar 3^rd, 2003, 3:20pm

First of all I would like to thank everyone for their input. You have all been very helpful. My husband starting taking Ver. today. I am so digusted with his Neoro. All she says is lets try a different med. The vicadin helps the pain in between. I have been hearing alot on the news today about using botox for migraines. Any thoughts on this. Or has anyone tried this. Does anyone out there have problems when they try to read or try to do some research on the computer. He has been able to do neither because he gets a flare up. Thanks to you all exhauseted ch suffers. I wish you all the best

Clopez - I hadnt realized we looked so tired. Also I'm sorry our exhaustion doesnt let him use the computer. ;) .............. A couple of folks have tried the botox injections and seems they had some positive results. .. . Do a search above on botox. .. I personally have no trouble in front of the computer but I have problems when I watch TV. Go figure. Unfortunately there is a lot of trial and error involved in finding the right medications for clusterheads, it seems to depend on each individual. 27 years and I still have not found that magic cure. Some folks are luckier than I and many are in the same predicament. This is just the way clusters go. What works for one doesnt necessarily work for another. You are fortunate in the fact that your doc is willing to try different things.
