Doctor also said that it could take a few weeks to see any improvement so I will keep you posted 
I will admit that I probably would not have gone through with it if my insurance didn't cover it but since it did and I have already hit my deductible, I figured I would give it a try....

I hope you get some good results from the injections. I had Botox for my migraines back on March 1. The dr told me my head would hurt worse for a week or two, but it didn't, I just had my normal headaches. It stopped my ice-pick headaches right away. You are right, it definitely hurts!! I got 20-25 injections also (I have RSD too) in my forehead, temples, side, back and top of my head and my neck.
I am so bummed that I can't get Botox anymore...I broke outing rash from it
I benefited from it so much, but the allergic reaction is too risky!!
Good luck!
