Guest guest Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Hello As some of you know I had a stroke about a year ago and then had fistula in my brain which I had surgery on it Jan 2012. I had been having head pain due to the stroke and more pain after the surgery. My doctors kept suggesting Botox shots for the pain and I finally had them this Monday. Tuesday I felt pretty good sore but still able to function. Wed I felt like I had been hit on my left side and by Thursday I stayed in bed all day and even had a black eye from it. I had 30 shots from my forehead, temples, occipital lobes, and my trapes. Yesterday afternoon I had my husband make me two cups of tea with coconut oil and rubbed the coconut oil on my black eye. Today I am still sore my black eye is gone and I was able to go out. I sure hope I dont need these shots again and I was glad I decided not to let them do my neck. I think I would probably still be in bed if it were not for the coconut oil. My mom is finally putting it her coffee. I will know in another week if the Botox worked for pain or not and I will share the results. Ciao- Ange Ciao- Ange ,_._,___ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
