Title: Botox worked for anyone??
Post by ClstrHeadSupport on Nov 1^st, 2005, 10:08am

I've had a few people (outside of this board, none of them diagnosed with Clusters) ask me if my husband (who is the sufferer) has tried Botox. Even his Neuro mentioned it. I know this has a history of working for people with migraines (I think) but has anyone here tried it and does it work??

Haven't tried it but we had a thread like this previously on the board.

I think if you look back a bit you'll find it. It does not seem to have an effect on CH but we all would LOVE to look better on the side we get hit!

Sorry of little help.

Jas ;)

I tried botox many times. It took care of the migraines (8x/month) and stopped them. However It did not touch this chronic clusterhead.
