Going for my first botox treatment today. πππ€ππ€ππ€π. I know it usually takes more than one treatment to see results. I hope this is the right thing for me. This year has been miserable!
Botox: Going for my first botox treatment... - Migraine Support
Botox
Great news I really hope it helps you. Iβve been on the waiting list for a year and just found out I have about another year and a half to wait!!!
Purple - well that is awful!
I'm in the US. I had to wait for insurance approval. I suppose they could have said no.
So far, good. I got a migraine Tuesday, that had not subsided, even with my new protocol and taking pain meds the first 24 hours. The appointment was yesterday (Thursday) and I got another aura, in the waiting room, before the Tuesday migraine pain was gone! The pain did not escalate. This morning, it is a dull ache.
I was told it would take 5 days to take full effect. So far, it's good.
I wish you well. I hope you can get it done sooner! ππ€ππ€π
Have been taking Botox for five years now and it has been a lifesaver for me. Had exhausted all other options first before going this route. Instead chronic, daily headaches, mine are limited to a couple a week which is a vast improvement The ones I do get seem to be easily controlled with Imitrex. Wish you the best of luck and truly hope Botox is the answer for you.
