I'm jealous I do admit that eventually there was some reduction in the pain at the back of my head, which lasted a couple of months, but the pressure/pain behind my eyes remained. Since then though the full blown headaches have returned. I was told by the n.s. that the shots were 4 monthly, so now I wait.
The patient just before me came out of the surgery saying she could feel the benefit straight away, which I was real hopeful about. But the n.s. also told me 2days to 2weeks, mine took about 4 days. The n.s. said to that some patients have a bit of a placebo effect and this may have been why that particular patient stated she had an immediate effect.
Hope you get a decent long term relief. I have heard of some really good results from the treatment for some people. Hope you are one of them
