I would say shot

would getting the shot give me brain fog? I’ve heard bad reviews about confusion and brain fog

My first round of Botox didn't work. I have my second round next month. If that doesn't work, then I'm going to look into other injectables

I get Botox ever 10 weeks and I love it. The first time I felt no change but I am on my 6th round now. Each time it has gotten better and better. Definitely weakened the level of pain. I also get ketamine treatments now and the two together have caused me almost full relief.
