Hi Shumbah, don’t know if this helps but I’ve had Botox on neck muscles for migraine relief. Works for 3/5 months. Also gave me trigger point injections along the trapezius muscles which was very effective. This treatment only helped localised pain and was available via the nhs pain clinic at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital. How this would work with fibromyalgia I dunno cos Botox nparalysis your individual muscle fibres , fibromyalgia is systemic isn’t it? Hope this helps & your having a good day. Andrea x

Thanks Andrea

Thank god you get some relief it must have been such a relief for you to be pain free

My Dr said it helps stop the muscle communication also so hopefully . I’m not sure it’s what I have the doctors have not come to a conclusion

I have appointments today in NYC and then next week in Boston .

On a good note hopefully is not a fluke I woke up during the night with a massive reduction in my shoulders . I will very interested to see how the next few days go as the Botox kicks in

Got my fingers crossed .

Thank you very much for your response

Kind regards Kester

Ps I spent over 12 years living and working in the Bromsgrove west midland .

My son still lives there . My home base is Australia where I was born

Have a fab day x
