I have dealt with these for 5 years now. After trying various drug and injection treatments my neurologist suggested Botox . It is a year and half now and it has made a wonderful difference for me. It takes several courses to start working well. Speak with your neurologist 🙏♥️

Thank you! I have seen that as a treatment option in my research. After 7 months have an appt with a Neuro Dr., have been seeing a NP. Put myself on a treatment course based on the literature I read and started neutricuticals of Magnesium, CoQ10 & riboflavin. Also, in treatment algorithms recommends an SSRI/SNRI with the addition of a daily low dose of alprazolam. Since my appointments are 2-3 months apart decided since I have most of the medication available to me I would start taking them. Surprisingly, the appt with the NP this week she was not opposed but felt that Effexor was a better option than Sertraline. So of course, she is out of the office today, after a Memorial 3-day w/e? It no wonder its impossible to get prompt care....so now have to wait until Monday to initiated SSRI/SNRI treatment. YYou are more patient than me....I'm not willing to put up with almost daily events or up to 3-4 per week for resolution. Thank you for your input and hope you are doing well!
