Title: Botox
Post by tgz23 on Jan 8^th, 2003, 12:48am

The beast visited me at work around noon about a week ago. I took the rest of the day off of work. About 2:30 when He was finally exiting my head I had CNN on and across the bottom of the screen where they run little news quips one stated that it was found that Botox was being used for sufferers of CH's. I have not researched this yet. I was just seeing if any of you have heard the same. Imagine PF and looking younger. LOL

FYI...

I have never used Botox, I have heard of it and I noticed today at my visit to the the neuro that Botox injection is listed on the sheet that the doctor fills out with your treatments, meds, etc.

The neuro that I go to specializes in headaches (hence the name Headache Wellness Center) so it is obvious to me that he prescribes Botox to some patients when necessary.

Tried it, didn't work for me. Although I got the injection from a plastic surgeon, not a neurologist.
