Richie,
I am so sorry the injections didn't help you. I think that is what is so weird about having ON. The docs originally diagnosed me with ON but when they saw the cervical spine MRI they changed that diagnosis to Cervicogenic headaches with variant migraines. I feel blessed in a sense because the culprit was eventually found but it took a good 3 years. But I also know ON can be muscular in nature and all kinds of other things. I hope the Botox works for you as it did my friend. Let us know if it helps. |

My ON is from failed brain surgeries for the TN. The scar tissue has built up and is now causing bilateral ON

My ON is from successful brain surgery to remove a cyst, but where the surgeon went in through my neck, was too close to the left occ. nerves! ~Jaime~

Well, I'm guessing mine is from a car accident (whiplash).

Sorry to hear that Jamie. I had the MVD - they also enter through the skull at the back of the skull. I believe that is the reason the right side is so bad. When I use to have the nerve blocks I always needed an extra one right where the "plug" is. Gee thanks guys LOL

Thanks Nikkey. I keep reminding myself that it could always be worse.

I had the Botox injections, but they did not work.
I am going back next week to see what else can be done |
