i am awaiting my third round of botox for neck pain and 1st bite syndrome. It definitely helps relax the muscles and seems to last around ninety days which is perfect as the insurance covers it every 3 months. i get about 20 injections up and down my neck at Mayo Clinic

Thanks. I have decided to wait till my radiation is done. I just don’t want to finish one problem before I start another.

@scooter4

Can I ask which provider (ENT, PCP, neurologist, etc.) prescribed the Botox treatment for you? I am still dealing with first bite from the same HPV neck cancer surgery that @mpmer described and which I had a year and a half ago. Have tried everything else since and Botox seems to be my last resort. Curious as you mentioned that you have it covered by insurance. TIA
