I had 7 Botox shots last week, 2 in the right side of my neck, 1 in the left side of my neck. I also had 2 shots into the upper Trapezius Muscles on my left and right side.

I can tell that the Botox is having an affect, but it is not the affect that I was looking for. My pain has changed as the muscles affected are getting weaker, but the other muscles are tighting up and causing my nerves to be pulled in different ways. Since I had the Botox shots, my pain has been in the 7-8 daily range with bad days 9-10.

I have my 1st physical therapy session since I had the Botox this afternoon. Hopefully it will help reduce the pain I am having. I am wearing a glove on my left hand, since it feels like I am getting cut by 1000 razor blades If I touch anything to even if I move my hand.

I have an appointment in Feb to start the process of getting a Spinal Cord Stimulator put in. The VA have already approved it, I just have to see the Pain Doc and setup the appointments.

Has anyone used a Spinal Cord Stimulator for TOS before? If so, did it help?
