Johanna -

I have read that the first try with the botox the Dr. uses is a small amount b/c they like to use the smallest amount possible. If it doesn't work well or enough relief then they like to try again in 3 months with a stronger does of botox. So, I know what its like to flair your pain up after things have calmed down - but maybe ---- you could try it again with a stronger dose? I plan to try it every 3 months for a year.

I can tell you that typing on a computer makes me SOOOOOOO much worse. OH the muscles are soooooo tight and burning!! and puff all up - yuck! I am feeling for you working on computer all day - I used to have that type of job - and then quit - opened a tanning salon - sold it after 2 yrs. and now stay at home with baby. I will keep ya posted.

Were you able to care for the kids OK the day after or so? and would you say you were a little better with pain in a few days? (the pain that the shots flaired up).
