For Migraine Prevention "My migraine was constant, lasting weeks at a time. I have only had one treatment with Botox, and it cut the intensity of the migraine considerably. I now can feel highs and lows, the lows being partial relief. Unfortunately, it is like the migraine moved into my jaw, neck, shoulders, and then down my spine in a flare-up. Holding my arms up while driving causes spasms that will rival the worst charley horse! A month in, and the neck pain is getting very slowly better. I have tried numerous muscle relaxants and creams to help, but nothing ever kicks it. I will try a second injection. I plan to discuss omitting or limiting the injections in my neck and back of the skull with my doctor to see if we can lessen the neck pain and still get relief."

For Migraine Prevention "I’ve been getting Botox for two years now. My migraines used to be 15-18 a month, and now they are between 6-8 a month. I feel human again and not like they rule my life. However, since I started Botox, my neck hurts 100% of the time. Sometimes, so bad I can’t turn it to the left. Honestly, sometimes I know driving isn’t very safe since I can’t turn my head. That being said, for now, I’m happy with the results. I can’t raise my eyebrows anymore either, so my kids like to tease me :)"

For Migraine "Took it. Didn't have a headache for one day, after that, my head hurts worse now. I have got neck pain and everything. Botox, horrible. I had two rounds, it made them worse, it seems."
