Hi Steve ... just like you I have never heard of or aware that botox or steroid injections helps with severe neck fibrosis (diagnosed in 2020, and have been living and adapting to speech impairments and swallowing issues - and turning my lifestyle 'upside-down' - where I tend to isolate myself due to 'slurring' and having to cough out/spit out food when stuck in my throat).
Managed to get an appt with Late Effects of Radiation Clinic in PMCC, Toronto - hope to get more info on this Botox procedure.

Hi Josk,
I have a lead that Brigham & Womens Pain Management in Boston might have a course of treatment for my very painful fibrosis. I'll find out more tomorrow. The fact that after-radiation care lasting for years as needed wasn't offered by the hospital treating me really burns me up. Now, I have to search out my own diagnosis, determine the treatment needed, and find the provider. Good luck to you. Let me know if you want the B&W Pain Mgmt contact info.

For me the Botox injections have been used in concert with the fat grafting.
