Injected 25 times. Wow. Actually, I went to a doctor that specializeed in Torticollis, a form of Dystonia. If I recall, I think I may have had a total of 8 or 10 injections. It is suppose to take a week or two before they start working and then, as Doc mentioned, they are only good for about 3 months. By the time it begins to work, it is almost time to get another. Didn't get enough relief so never had a second round. I do hope you get at least a decent amount of relief time. Some years ago, I had gone to a Neurologist for the migraines. He prescribed preventative meds, Inderal and Elavil to take daily in an effort to prevent them. I had also done bio-feedback. He had also prescribed Midrin to be taking when migraine would be coming on and during the migraine. He prescribe a large quantity with 12 refills. Had no idea about rebound headaches at that time and he never warned me this could happen Since he had prescribed a large quantity with 12 refills to last a year; didn't realize I was having rebound headaches. Awful. Whem Imitrex came on the market, it was the answer to my prayers. They really help. But, as previously mentioned; must be careful not to overdo because of rebound headaches. I learned the hard way. Keep us informed. (Gerry) |
