tom Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Anybody seen this article? http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/rss/-/1/hi/health/10577609.stm Did a quick search here on the word botox and got no results, so hopefully I'm not posting old news Just wondering whether it might help with CH. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psiloscribe Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Thanks for posting this. Botox has shown some success with migraines and also has helped some people with clusters although its really hit and miss and takes time testing it in different areas of the scalp, face. Dr. Robbins who presented at last years Clusterbuster conference has probably don't the most in the US with testing out Botox for clusters. One more clue to help detail the whole vascular headache mystery. It's also very difficult to get insurance companies to cover it for treating headaches in the US.

tom Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 One of the joys of living in England; but as you say, sounds like another piece of the puzzle rather than the picture on the box... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee_Ann Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Dan had botox. It didn't do a thing for his clusters, but he sure looked handsome. Just another testimony that ya'll are a good lookin bunch. Right Bob? Lee Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psiloscribe Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Just another testimony that ya'll are a good lookin bunch. Right Bob? Lee Ann Yes and the best part is that although we could easily get along on our good looks alone, we also have the brains to go along with it. Not to mention our modesty ;-) Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonkers Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 What Bob said! Mike and I are in full agreement. I also heard that Alt folks are better lovers. Btw, Mike got $2,500 - that we didn't have! - worth of shots into his forehead and It did absolutely nothing! Nothing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
