Thank-you for your response, my Dr recommended me to a pain management Dr 18 months ago and have been on a waiting list since. Well the other day I read in the newspaper that he is moving his much needed service to Toronto which is a real bummer. My family Dr truly believes in the botox injections and he is now on a mission to see where he can refer me to. So Barb are your injections CT guided and where exactly are they injecting??
Thanks again and take care.
