Botox for Migraines: Experiences and Advice Needed

So I got my first set of botox July 5th. I was doing fine but it’s been a few days now since I’ve had migraines again and it feels terrible ….. I was really hoping botox would work for me…. Any experiences guys? Please share.

My neuro told me after two to three weeks after the first injections, only 25% of people will have results. Most people need about three treatments to have relief. I recently had my second injections. They also did nerve blockers this time. I take topamax daily, 50 MG twice a day and that helps tremendously. I still occasionally take sumatriptan as an emergency medication, but not as often.

For me it took a few rounds of Botox before it started really working. It’s helped me a lot since then though. I hope you are able to find something that works for you!

thank you. May I ask what other medications are you taking for your migraine?
