Hi. I haven’t been suffering from chronic everyday migraines for over a year and a half and I was wondering if anyone could share their experiences with using Votox for migraine prevention. What are the risks and benefits?

    Hi Julia,I suffer from chronic migraine and last year I had two lots of Botox,three months apart.It doesn't hurt and it takes about 7-10 days to kick in properly and you get a numb forehead.It didn't work for me but I know it has been a godsend for lots of people.I would say go for it.Good luck x

    Yeah.  I have tried everything and not much has helped so I’m desperate for relief.
