What kind of headaches do you get??

I was prescribed Soma and several other muscle relaxants by pain mgt Dr who felt my headaches and some other pain problems were caused by severe spasms. Soma didn't help me nor did most of the other meds tried, except Valium --but only breif relief--w/ lots of undesirable side effects.

this has been more recently DX'd as occipital nueralgia --back of head/neck pains mostly but can "move" and evolve into more...
this pain is constant & often quite severe. My neuro wants to do Botox. got approval but now some problem w/ availability. I hope Dr office will be getting the drug so I can try... good & lasting relief has been reported.

I also have long Hx of Migraines & other "mixed" headaches, including headaches & other severe pain from TBI-Traumatic Brain Injury accident.

Wish you the best in finding relief.
