Default Occipital Neuralgia AND Cervical Dystonia???

Hello, I am new here. I was diagnosed with Cervical Dystonia approximately 3 1/2 years ago. I began Botox injections immediately and they have definitely been a God-send.

Over the past 8 or 9 months I have begun have almost debilitating headaches that do differ somewhat from the headaches I was used to with the CD. Just this week I was diagnosed with Occipital Neuralgia. I had the nerve block and will go back in two weeks for another round of injections. I was also given Cambia for when the pain is extremely bad.

As of right now, nothing seems to be making a dent in the headaches. I am just wondering if anyone else is dealing with both of these issues at the same time? If so what treatments have you used and what has been your success or failure with those?

Thank you in advance for any information.
