I am so pleased for you. Migraines are so debilitating and I can only imagine having as many as you've been suffering from. Yay for the botox!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/botox-for-migraines---update#post-1129413 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 15:01:30 +0000 Glory 1129413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all, some of you asked for&nbsp;a followup on the Botox treatments for migraines. I had my first treatment one month ago. I have tried pretty much everything there is to offer. I felt this was pretty much a last resort after 35 years of migraines.&nbsp;</p> <p>The treatment itself was fairly quick and consisted of 39 points of injection to the head, neck and shoulders. More was injected on my migraine side.&nbsp;I did not really have any side effects from it other than some mild bruising on the upper forehead. It was a bit uncomfortable but not nearly in the category of migraine pain.</p> <p>I usually have approximately 10 migraines per month and about 10 headaches. Each of those 10 migraines were major and impacted work and home life, and had to be treated. I only mention headache numbers because they want to know this when they assess you as a Botox candidate.</p> <p>I have had 3 migraines this past month which needed treatment (an abortive and pain medicine). ONLY 3. I have had the same number of headaches.&nbsp;</p> <p>The neurologist recommends two treatments 3 months apart for a good trial.<br />My feeling at this point is that it is worth considering. Added bonus: fewer forehead wrinkles :)</p> <p>Fingers crossed ! </p>
