Did your Dr say the botox would work pretty much straight away?
Hi Sitke,

Thanks for the response. I actually had to mention the Botox to my doctor after reading about it- my neurologist's constant quote is "after 2 years everything is permanent".
He gave me the Botox - said it would take 7 days to work - if it is going to work - and then said I need at least 3 treatments.
It is quite expensive - luckily I have a plan that covers it for now.
I know how you feel with the headaches - sorry you are suffering as well.
It seems like the pressure/headaches will never go away - my brain feels raw. I also have really bad days after my vision therapy - which is today. Took Tylenol3 - it takes the edge off.
