Just curious as to anyone's experience/ opinions about botox as a treatment?

Valerie, I'll link you to a thread we had on this a few months ago, which you can find HERE.

My insurance ended up denying the Botox so I haven't tried it. For a variety of reasons I'm in the process of changing doctors so I'm not appealing the Botox decision at this time. But there is good info in that thread.

I know some of our members have tried it so they should chime in here for you.

Hi,

Here is an Ask the Clinician question regarding Botox that may be helpful.

Botox injections for relief of headaches?
